Reincarnation in a cliché novel written as a cliché novel. Characters are one dimensional and pretty bland. They have their one personality trait and it heavily defines them. Not a lot of smart characters. A lot of the chapters are rather skippable honestly. A lot of generic ideas, some portions were nice sections to read though. MC is your typical reincarnated reader/author with near photographic memory who faces "struggles" gathering OP items or rather are really just gifted to them.

I read all your free chapters. Just because I said they're skippable doesn't mean I skipped them. My opinion was that I didn't like the story enough to spend coins after the free chapters. It was too predictable and generic with nothing truly special that I don't find it worth continuing. After reading ever so many books, you will find these cliches and similar plots but some are able to keep you engaged with unique characters, crafty dialogue or a vivid world. This story didn't do it for me, that's all.

Thanks for pointing these things out. I do have planned a lot of things for my novel but I'm trying to add them slowly into the worldbuilding rather than doing info-dumps. This is what might make some chaps fell as 'skippable'. I'll try my best to improve the shortcomings you've pointed out :D

I have 2 comments in regarts to your review. 1. I as a reader appreciate how you didn't equate cliche to bad 2. while I agree the character could have more to them as far as beind 1 dimensional, it is still far more than most self-insert characters that are oh so common.

So far it's nice to read because of the Writing Quality,StoryDevelopment, Stability of Update and mainly the charecter development of the Mc. At first i thought with the knowledge that Mc has of novel he won't have any difficulties surviving for the "time being" but hoo boy was I wrong , Anyways Those who are going to read the novel for the first time you are all in for a fun ride.

First of all writing quality is extremely high and you can see that the author has a solid grasp on language. The mc is well written and the scenes with the other characters are enjoyable to read. I have currently read to the latest chap 22 and I highly recommend for you to give this one a chance

Hate transmigration stories where there are other who also transmigrated or have knowledge of it, and manipulate the MC, especially when the author hides that fact. Especially when they put that discovery well behind the pay wall. Scummy.

I would give this novel 0 stars if I could. I just finished chapter 34 and it's clear this book plagiarized alot of ideas from the novel "The Authors POV" and a cool key idea/power for the MC that's in the novel "The Beginning After The End." If you like the first few chapters of this novel, stop wasting your time here and read the mentioned novels above

GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions be known. Thank you.

Titan King: Ascension of the Giant

Hulk was a pro football player, a guy who loved nothing more than clutching a pigskin and barreling through the defense like a runaway freight train. He lived for the gridiron. But he never, in his wildest dreams, imagined he'd see a pair of nipples bigger than a football. He became a giant baby, reborn with a new name: Orion. Orion was the runt of the giant litter, the weakest of the bunch. But when he turned ten, something crazy happened. He saw a strange panel – that not only displayed his stats but also helped him level up. With the panel's help, and a whole lot of elbow grease, Orion led his giant tribe to become the most powerful in the Barren Mountains. He went from zero to hero, becoming a mighty Titan King. He was no longer the runt; he was the top dog.
