There’s not many books with this concept (archaeology) combined with an isekai vibe, so i applaud the author’s originality 😍 hope you can make more books like this, Ms. Chainslock!

What I like most about writing ANDROMEDA is that . . . I was able to create people whom I think are closer to me than I’ve ever been closer to (real) people—you construct their thoughts, emotions, characteristics, and appearance as their basic foundation. You put the characters into trouble and think how they handle it with their different attitudes and perspectives. This is what I liked best—because my main characters composed of people like an archeologist, a doctor, a researcher, a biologist and a former sergeant-in-arms. I liked how they have their individuality. I outlined ANDROMEDA a month ago when I watched about Lovecraft in Ted Ed’s educational videos in their writer’s workshop, regarding how to harness the “fear of the unknown.” I think it’s thrilling how characters first will know little just like the readers, and as the story goes, and when the truth is revealed, both the readers and the characters would have the complete grasp of whatever it is that’s occurring. It’s like being with someone, and you watch them grow. And you grow along with them. I’m writing ANDROMEDA to explore a new world—to venture to the “unknown” fearlessly. What I aim to happen is to have the characters be closer to the readers—seize their hand and watch them grow. Create a new world being linked to ours. Create that connection. I welcome you to ANDROMEDA; and I hope, my dear reader, we will be with you til the end of the “unknown.” Until we know fully the truth — or is it the truth we are seeking?

I've never seen several concepts integrated so perfectly in one story. I'm not into archaeology, but this made me look up some details. It marvelled me how meticulous the preparations of archaeologists during their excavation seasons! No wonder Ephraim wanted to go to Cairo. Also, I'm a nerdy of astronomy, primarily on cosmology. This novel just keeps on dishing out facts like a freakin' black hole with its hawkings radiation. That Arthurian legend is probably a disguised theory, one that I've definitely read but can't remember somehow. You included extensive facts and surprisingly, they are not out of place. They were purposefully placed, which aided in the learning of the readers. We're discovering things along with Ephraim. Lucian better look at that x-coordinate. My favourite character here is definitely Samuel. Others might favour Bertholdt for his casual maturity, Esmeralda for her cuteness and intellect, Hiroaki cause he's a badass, or Ephraim for his reasonableness. However, Samuel is being true to himself, being merely a kid in the midst of accomplished adults. I don't mind his sharp, unreasonable tongue, since, maybe, it's his defence mechanism. He chose to be there for his sister and that's commendable! Some of us will definitely relate to having Joanna as a parent, and you conveyed her adamant refusal to what Ephraim really wanted for himself. It's painful reading this; it is so relatable! The characters are well established, making the readers feel like we know them personally. They are very distinguishable in every passage! I utterly love your story! Please be my Ephraim and teach me! I will be supporting! Best wishes to you, author! Sorry for the lengthy review!

In a future timeline, the earth was visited by a species known as the Slarkovs. Having lost their home planet and in search of a new one, the Earth was the next habitable planet for them. Humans and Slarkovs made a deal with each other in return for the Slarkovs living on Earth. The Slarkovs traded their technology and knowledge for a new home.

My SSS-Rank Class Is Blood Monarch!

'Divinity Online'. The new breakthrough in the Full-Immersion Virtual Reality technology. After decades of work, Divinity Corp had achieved the impossible. Creating a massive video game world that people can enter and live in as if it were Earth. Their goal was clear, to create a world other than Earth that we can call home. A place where the laws of reality vanish, and the true ceiling of power shifts completely. Naturally, the shockwave Divinity Online created across the entire globe was unlike anything else. Every single person has heard of it, even those who have had no interest in video games before. Giant corporations and even governments immediately rushed to start planning to invest in this new world and just like that, billions of people had their eyes on one single date: the 19th of July. *** Arthur, like everyone else, had heard of the game and was as excited as everyone else to try it, if not even more. With how much he grew bored of his life on earth, this fantasy world was like the divine call he had been searching for. However, there was a very small problem. He had no money to buy the machine required to access Divinity Online. His wretched life had turned him into a broke teenager with no parents, and no relatives. But, by some kind of luck, he got his hands on one of those machines. Not knowing what was awaiting him in that world, Arthur was simply seeking one thing... A new opportunity in life and to find a purpose he could work for when he had none so far. [Welcome to 'Divinity Online'.] [Assimilation Started...]
