One of the best books I read (And I read more than a thousand in Russian, English, and Chinese). It starts slowly, but then bloom in some really unique story with world background as deep as in Franklin Herbert "Dune" or Isaac Asimov "Foundation" (Thousands of years of history, many countries, many powers). Just enough drama and humor, enough action and breaks of tranquility, perfect characters with brilliant stories. I hope it will become bestseller one day.

One of the best novels out on the Web. It also has a unique power system which is really well thought out and balance if I must say. From Wikia: Magic System Servant powers are abilities that servants develop as they age. Each servant will develop exactly one ability, from one of the six basic types: Materialization, Transfiguration, Alteration, Destruction, Integration, and Mutation. A power's strength can be increased by three methods. Meditation and training are slower but safe and guaranteed to work. Emergence is unpredictable but gives larger jumps in power. Materialization empowers a servant with the ability to materialize a specific element or compound from nothing and annihilate said creations. Transfiguration also affects a specific element, but rather than allowing the servant to create their element from nothing they can instead turn sections of their body into their element. Alteration unlike materialization and transfiguration affects the laws of physics rather than any specified element, servants with this ability will have control over one specific area of physics whether that be a force or type of energy, such as gravity, particle vibrations, or light. Destruction is a unique ability unlike any other as it propels distorted space in a geometric shape along a predetermined path. Integration allows for the fusion of disparate objects into a single whole, with properties of the original materials. Mutation allows the servant to permanently alter their body. It has a slow start and the MC also is not like the other MC from other novels where they become powerful in just 10 or so chapters. I am up to date up to the latest pages(on the official site), and I must say the story is really good and been a fan for over seven years. If you have the time, give it a try and you might find yourself in a story unlike any other.

Читаю эту новеллу уже который год. Каждый раз с нетерпением жду новых страниц на основном сайте новеллы. Мне все очень нравится. Сколько раз перечитывала, и каждый раз узнаю, замечаю больше нюансов, мелочей, диалогов, которые как бы ни о чем, но на самом деле очень важны. И узнаешь их важность только при перепрочтении.
Some observations/thoughts I had that you might find more or less important: The title is misleading, Zombie in it seems to mean an immortal superpowered person who is paired up with one of many reapers(who also were originally humans). The initial premise of finding regular people who are going to die some time in the future, figuring out some way to prevent their death and then dealing with consequences of whatever weird stuff the MC had to do in order to do that is quickly abandoned in favour of battles between the good and evil superpowered people. Personality and interactions of the MC are really nice and interesting and his backstory/starting situation was something I appreciated even if I'm not sure what I think of it. Most action scenes are boring and make my eyes glaze over. MC has a love interest but it's clearly not the focus of the story, also she ends up being sort of sterile so that the author can say people should adopt more. The world is sexist and most characters love to point out how that sucks without doing anything about it. Racism seems to be an issue that rarely gets brought up but the wildly different world history makes it feel somewhat fresh and interesting(ie. warlike slave using nation that conquered large parts of the world before breaking up was presumably mostly black) One point of different but similar world seems to be to paint thing more black and white than they'd be if modern earth was the setting. Many characters are really nice and interesting but not all of them making some PoV chapters feel like a slog. MC's abilities and powers grow pretty nicely. Sad event happens and is nice but... Spoiler: Spoiler There's a tragic and ****ed up situation that happens at some point and it's really nice overall with the consequences of it for the MC being important but the issue is that it did a great job at making me invested in seeing the antagonist get defeated but then the antagonist actually dies right away and we're left with only vague bad guys that the MC doesn't really have personal issues with. Some situations make me think that the author subscribes to the idea that subversion of expectations is always great even when that makes a more boring story(ie. at one point it seemed clear that a new "party member" was being introduced but then they died making me go "oh, I didn't expect that and I suppose all that stuff did serve some minor purpose but I'm still disappointed."). Overall I'd say it's not bad but as I kept reading it and wondering if I really want to read it I eventually decided that no, there isn't really anything that I'm looking forward to happening and even if there are some interesting bits they'll be surrounded by too many boring fight scenes or such.
