Review Detail of HappyGhost in The Butterfly of Chaos

The writing style is highly polished, and I can infer that the author based it off of more traditional novel styles. The method applied by the author in which they developed the world, plot, and character archetypes alludes to styles utilized by Tolkein, Faulkner, Austen, etc. Easy to comprehend, and there isn't a stress of dialogue. The presence of multiple main characters is interesting, and they're represented well. From what I'm reading, the characters are mostly reticent and not very outspoken, which is well complemented by the lack of direct statements of speech and thoughts, rather revealing their actions to implicitly display them instead. However, dialogue is indeed present in the latter portions of the novel. That it isn't abused or placed as the central component of the novel, is a refreshing find. The emphasis on worldbuilding in the prologue could be stretched over the first few chapters. However, it's still a good read nonetheless. Compared to the other novels in this database with their overemphasized, dramatic explosion of a beginning, this novel with a slow, more relaxed and indirect development of the plot is truly an interesting and refreshing find.
