Feels like a cheap hollywood flick. Things happen the way they do because plot needs it, not because it makes sense. Marines can't use 'armor piercing bullets' inside the ship because 'they don't want marines to blow half the ship into oblivion', yet marines get pushed back because the sorry excuse of a bullet they are allowed to use can't even penetrate the bugs carapace. They have to shoot at the bugs open mouth or the joints to even do damage! Yeah right... With such redundant weapons ofc the things don't go well. Marines are killed in droves and they are being pushed back so bad, they start using grenades that throw around tungsten balls that turn into plasma and can pierce the bugs and leave the hull of the ship riddled with holes. The Captain is informed that the situation is getting desperate and %80 of the defenders in one of the engineering section is dead, so they ask to use the armor piercing bullets, but NOOOO. It is not allowed, keep using grenades good chaps and leave the ship riddled with holes haha! Oh also, keep being meat shields haha! Enjoy getting eaten alive by bugs hahaha! What a great idea! They don't even trust their own marines to use armor piercing bullets because 'it might pierce into the reactor core and blow the ship'. Seriously? So they use grenades which can do much worse instead? The notion of armor piercing bullets going through the walls and reaching the reactor is already ridiculous enough, a reactor room shouldn't be so unprotected, but even if such a worry is real, why would they use such powerful grenades then? Their 'ceramic bullets' that don't pierce the hull of the ship also can't pierce the bugs carapace. So by logic, this grenade that sends tungsten plasma projectiles which can pierce the bugs carapace, can also pierce the hull of the ship! If not, why would they make the ceramic bullets so useless? If the grenade doesn't pierce the hull, but can pierce the bugs, then why would they not make a bullet that can actually work just as well as the grenade!? See, this is the logic hole i'm talking about! Anyways, because they are not allowed to use armor piercing bullets and because they are slow at clearing out the bugs that breached into the ship, the bugs reach a conduit and everything goos BOOM. Ship is done for. All because they were afraid their own marines can't shoot straight and the somehow 'so overpowered armor piercing bullets could pierce the reactor'. Sigh... The best way to describe what i'm feeling right now would be 'feels like a cheap hollywood flick'. Disappointing. Very disappointing...

Well a normal story, similar to GATE but with tons of flaws. The hole idea of a confrontation betwen magic vs science is cool as i said like in GATE, however in this novel the author nerfed pretty bad science and weapons, for example; -Marines suffering casualties when confronting medieval warriors. Author do you know that our weapons are made to kill at distance?, now imagine our weapons in the future do u really think some warriors will get a chance to even get close to them?. Just thinking about our present mines, barbed wire, grenades, i get annoyed. - The usn singapore have even laser that can be charged with solar energy but somehow they chose to use missiles for everything depleting them pretty early. Also, those missiles are joke i doubt the author have investigate how a missiles kill ppl (they use energy and heat to destroy) Besides the weapons all the systems get blocked or cant operate in a proper way in the new world, infrared scan fail... night visions fail, motion detection system fail.. i mean wtf why it fail, is physics working different in that planet? In conclusion and average novel, that i can't stand so.. dropped.
Great original idea, it reminds me of a book I read somewhere but this book contains magic. The writing quality is not bad albeit some minor errors and skipping of the layout of their temporary complex makes it hard to visualize the surroundings. The story development is a bit rushed, I am suspecting that the author just writes on the fly and releases the chapter. If the author spent more time on how he wants to develop this world the novel would be at the top spot. View More
Has the thrill of sic-fi, the wonder of fantasy and a great story you'll never want to put down. This story give gave me the best parts of my favourite stories and is doing a dam good job of crafting a wonderful story. If only more chapters would come out at a time, when you start reading you just don't want to stop.
Story starts out with quite a bunch of loopholes but knowing that this is Author's first novel, it made sense. As story progressed, the loopholes started to decrease and story improved significantly. First 2 books are a masterpiece in my personal opinion, But 3rd book is where story goes (really really) downhill. I'd recommend everyone to read the first 2 book; as for 3rd book... I'll just pretend novel ends at 2nd book
Beyond Awesome Novel. Has the tendency to become frustrating at times, but the enemies always get what they deserve in the end. This novel was definitely written by a pro who studies war history or has military experience. Everything about the novel is excellent... the pacing is great and professional, and everything flows together seamlessly... The uploads seem a bit off, but this could be a recent thing... I can definitely see this novel having 2000+ chapters without ever getting boring... This is something on par with Cultivation Novels while being completely westernized... It has a mix of space, sci-fi, fantasy, Gods, Magic, and several other elements that are woven together excellently.
