LIKEafter cassie essentially enslaved him we thought he would get revenge on her at least. but not only he didn't but he felt guilty because he lashed out on her. this level of simping is unbearable. especially in contrast with how his character was presented in the beginning. it is insult to the readers.
You asked and got your answer. Please reply to the above comment, author. Lol, don't hide behind another account and reply directly.
Even if he wanted to kill her, how would he? I mean, come on? Imagine plotting to assassinate someone with her aspect.
I admit the beginning and end of volume 2 were bitter pills to swallow, but volume 1 instilled in my some faith in the author’s ability to carry the prose. We clearly have underlying themes about breaking free from inescapable fate. In my opinion, the characters make reasonable decisions given their situations, and I’m willing to see it through to the end.
I think everyone who has read many novels understands that the beginning is when the author creates the protagonist's personality and from there the protagonist can evolve or regress, in volume 1 the author still left the protagonist's personality messed up, at the beginning I thought he he was going to be cold, calculating and with a good IQ, then I thought he was going to be more calculating because of school and in the labyrinth all this changes to him being someone who trusts his friends and who wants to change to be someone trustworthy, resolving many traumas and in danger of being betrayed by one of the girls he trusted in the future, which any good reader would know was going to happen after his conversation with Cass. In volume 2 the author got lost, all the description of MC that I did for volume 1 has nothing to do with him in volume 2, he even seems like a new character, as someone said previously he became a real slave in personality, all with scared and afraid of everything, for me the author got too lost in this and on top of that the story was at a snail's pace, from chapter 100 to 120 if I'm not mistaken there were 2 or 3 chapters in which he didn't end up with a monologue of the mistakes he made, I wanted to see more evolution of the character but nothing came of it and it gives me a bad feeling reading this, it feels like I'm stuck in the sand without being able to get out and just continue facing everything as if volume one never happened. And before anyone says that this will change, that this has to happen to the protagonist for him to improve or something like that, then I can only say that the author wrote it in a horrible way and that it probably only changes to resolve this error, if the author He thought this was good for the story, so he lacks a lot of experience as a writer. And to think that this book is being sold on Amazon and that there are a lot of Tiktok fanboys, how can the community sink so low. Ps. The plot and the world were very well created, there was just one huge mistake in the main character that disappointed many people and found it difficult to accept.
God, have some patience, not all chapters are supposed to be dynamic. But I also admit that some parts of the novel are incredibly annoying, or as if artificially stretched, but I find them just a necessary break and a place to plant more Chekhovian guns, so that the story is more thorough and rich, and there was no feeling that something just came out of thin air. I had only two moments when I suffocated. The first was on the Forgotten Shore, when the story suddenly jumps to the future and the MC, some guy was left alone and is wandering somewhere in the streets. The second time I choked after the arc of the Forgotten Shore, after another timeskip, where the MC went to the flying islands (I forgot what they are called in the novel , I didn't like them that much).
