Interesting concept, with a mediocre execution. The core concept of a master that has to pick and raise his disciples is fairly good. Nothing too original, but fun nonetheless. The excessive exposition and focus on banality make this novel hard to read though. So while the core concept remains fairly is interesting and fun, you'll have to keep skimming and skipping through the text to get to the actually interesting bits. Characters also aren't very interesting. As said above, the story is told mostly through introspection and exposition. Leaving very little room for actually interesting character interactions. There are some good/fun this here and there, but there is just too little of it. Characters all remain very flat and interactions often times don't feel quite natural. I wouldn't recommend reading this, unless you really love stories with a lot of exposition, a very slow pace and with excessive amounts of detail. If you're into that, go for it. Otherwise skip this one.

LIKEThanks for the review! Personally also think that there is way too little focus on character interaction and did my best to change that in future chapters. It is also one of the reasons why I'm currently in the process of rewriting my earlier chapters to make it a more enjoyable experience for new readers, as they don't have to go through the process of me learning to write... xD
