Review Detail of MassRead in Destiny: Hive Rising
Details zur Rezension
There isn't much of a plot to speak of right now. The dialogue is very bare bones, and offers very little in terms of character development or even characterisation. The prose is simple, and reads fluidly enough but doesn't really hold attention very well. The chapters are very short, and you could cut most of them and still have the same things happen. It could use some more actual description, and maybe more interaction with the outside world. Right now it just reads like disjointed diary entries. If I wasn't told this was set in the destiny setting, very little would have pointed to it.

I didn't say that there wasn't enough dialogue, just that what there was, wasn't very fleshed out. A character who cannot communicate well verbally is fine, it can be part of the characterisation, but that does not feel the case here. Also, yes the writing has some terms that are from the Destiny setting, but that is not very well explored; it is something that is taken for granted.
EmptyWriter:did you read past chapter 1? i think it’s pretty obvious that it’s in the destiny world plus, this is a story about a thrall, of course there isn’t going to be dialogue since they can’t speak
i think you’re confused with “can’t communicate well” and “can’ t communicate at all” the MC has zero ability. He can’t talk to fallen since they 1. don’t share the same language, and 2. are extremely hostile to one another he can’t communicate with guardians due to the same reason. You saw how even hive chosen by the traveler and can communicate were treated, let alone those not chosen and who can’t also, it’s also pretty clear that it’s in destiny. from his birth it was clear that he was a thrall. And even before it was told he was fighting fallen you could have understood that he’s fighting, when he leaves the cave he finds himself right where the actual game starts. don’t leave a one star review on a novel just due to the reasons that you couldn’t figure out he was in destiny and the author doesn’t force communication into the story.

I left a review cause this person came to a discord server unrelated to destiny and asked for reviews, I don't play destiny, I don't know nothing about it. It was advertised as a book and asked for critique *shrug*
