Review Detail of Kergonan in World Domination System

World Domination System is the non-translated Chinese style fantasy novel I've read. So, did KillerHemboy create a dominating masterpiece ? The world although it feels kinda small toward the end of the novel, has a lot of depth, with numerous layers of mysteries that get peeled like the layer of an onion. Some details seem a bit too convenients at times, but it really put a true originally to what appears first a classic medieval-fantasy setting. The characters are good overall. The main character, Daneel, is very good, with a fine progression and trials that make him grow into the world dominator suggested by the title. The core cast is also quite good, especially his best friends and love interrests, who also get some fine growth as the story progesses. By the way, the romance aspect, while not the best I've ever read, is still great, progressive and does not feel forced. The rest of the cast is a mixed bag, especially for the antagonists, who, mostly because of the setting, have the same motivation. THe one exception being the last major antagonist, whose psychology is well developped. The power system is pretty well done; with two main path to power for fighters and mages (the MC is a dual user), with specialisations and perks depending on the affinities and skills of the person. The titular World Domination System plays a significant part in the protagonist's ascension, but while it is powerful, it is not an almighty plot armor. It has flaws, requires great efforts to upgrade and while relevant up to the end, does not take away from the story and maturation of Daneel. The plot is pretty good itself (a save the world tale with a bit of orginality), but sadly is mostly centered one track from the first third of the novel. It suffers also from a pacing problem, especially toward and at the end, when the action is frantic nearly without pause, even at the end. I understand that it is necessary to prepair for the second novel in the serie, but it can be tiring to read. The writing itself is good but mared with numerous typos, paragraphs cut into two part, not only in the beginning, but right until the last chapter. This makes for an upsetting reading experience, especially since a lot of the typos and other mistakes are really easy to spot. Sometimes it feels like the author does not reread himself. In conclusion, WDS is a good, even very good novel, but it suffers from three big problems: a big of a restrictive setting, pacing, and quality of the writing. It is quite a pleasant reading, not an excellent, but you can't get wrong with this book. The final verdict is a 7 out of 10, so a high 3 stars reading (in case the author ever comes back to this tale to correct the typos, it would become an 8 out of 10 / 4 stars reading). If KillerHemboy can improve and correct these flaws in the second volume of the story (Rise of the Godking, also available on Qidian), then we will have true masterpiece.
