This is the first review that I have ever written so yeah, bear with me. No spoilers. I am not an expert at judging novels, but I can definitely say that considering that this is the first novel the author has written, this is a masterpiece. However, not all masterpieces can be perfect, and I would hope to give some constructive criticism so that the author could try and improve, on the off chance that author-sama reads this. Writing Quality Although there are minor grammatical errors here and there, I think that it is barely noticeable unless you are like reading it out loud or something. Other than that, the writing quality is very good. Stability of Updates Do I need to explain? The author, who claimed that this was just a hobby (if i recall correctly) releases chapters nearly everyday. Thanks a lot. Story Development The start was very similar to TNE, but the author did mention that. It gets much different later on and I appreciate that the author tries to write a different plot. To be honest, I think that there is a lot of build up for small arcs, but I appreciate longer chapters so that's fine. Character Design To be completely frank, the author has not developed much of the other characters. It could be much better, such as writing more from side character's point of view (even though the novel is called Author POV) or even just describing the backstory of more of the main cast. Here are some of that characters that should, in my opinoin, be more involved with the plot so far: Mellisa, I would love to see a mini-arc of her in which her personality becomes better. Emma, my first impression of her was that she is a b*tch. Some character development or knowledge of her backstory would be appreciated. Donna, my current view of her is that she is also a b*tch, who ony cares about the strong and discards the weak. Smallsnake, maybe some backstory, or his real identity? Also, another thing that I wanted to tell the author, is that he should describe the looks of the main cast more detailed. The only thing I know is that they are beautiful/ handsome. When I was first reading the novel, in order to understand the scene that the author were describing better, I would have the webnovel's wiki (https://the-authors-pov.fandom.com/) on my other screen so that I know how the characters look like. World Background I gave this a high rating as I had read TNE before and I know how the world roughly felt. Same as the character design, I would wish that the author could try and depict the scenes better. Miscellaneous I think that the author wrote too much about things unrelated to the plot. Although personally I like long chapters, other people might not like reading these things. Review for readers Just try reading this. I won't hurt and there are a lot of free chapters. If you like modern fantasy or futureish novels that has a good main character but not too overpowered, try this.

Something that I forgot to address is: please have more scenes like the after-party one. That was probably the best climax in this entire novel so far. It combined the main character's intelligence and logic with his planning and strength. Thank's author. You should take a longer break from all the writing seeing that you chugged out basically a chapter a day before last week.
