Carver

Ren Dover? Way too close to ye olde telephone/pa joke of "Mr Ben Dover". Really hope it's not a certain type of novel bc the naming sense would be even worse.

Here I was dreading the mini tournament arc, hope the next chapter moves more.

Really enjoying the novel

Not bad, world building is pretty solid. There are some commenters insisting on spoon-feeding. They lack the capability of just a bit of critical thinking. Overall something a bit different and very welcome.

Really thought he was going to shrink to Hobbit size, would've been better.

So far it's a solid choice to follow. The main issue is that there are not enough chapters yet. The world is nicely fleshed out with enough room for leveling up. The plot is fine, not outstanding but whatever. There's an odd sibling thing going on, the humor falls a bit flat for me.
