This is my personal opinion so don't take any offense in any way. The writing is mostly readable even though there are quite some grammar mistakes or even entire words are just random (it seems). The story is fast paced because the development of the xenomorphs is quite fast, but at the same time it is slow paced because of the multiple povs. The Xeno-race is quite in the background because of that and the little screentime doesn't leave much room for explanations and development. Also because of the multiple povs of the side characters that will die within 20 chapters makes the reading quite boring because they don't have any impact in the long term. If you have multiple povs I expect characters with impact like some prince or whatever like a real enemy or friend. The Mc's design is quite dull. He is some crazy mass murder who would kill anyone and at the same time is a loving nerd, so just crazy. He was enraged when one runner died but the death of the rest of them were just mentioned in brackets (). The haggling with the system which is explained as a limiter to the Mc's development speed doesn't limit at all. It permanently gives mc things that he shouldn't have at his stage and also explains it that way but still does it anyway. The interactions the mc has with the system is also just boring and cringe tbh. The other characters do have just a tiny bit of character themselves but it only shows through one trait they have. The world background is normal steampunk with magic and monsters and it's not fully explained (where I am) how the countries work. All in all I dislike the attention which side characters get (they all will certainly die) instead of mc who almost has no screen time after ch10 or so. I don't dislike the will not to forget smaller characters but keep it in check. Btw I'm thankful for the pictures the author adds.

Is it an original steampunk world? Just asking before I read

Its pretty good bust it contains Elcor speech be warned

loving the story such a good read and love how evil the character is definitely one the best reads

Excellent writing love the world being built and hope you don't drop this

Small grammar errors here and there but nothing too bad, other than that this is a really good alien story. Only on chapter 5 at this point but really want more. Definitely worth the read and yes, the gore descriptions are up to par so far (at least for myself)

This is a good book I like it so far I’m adding it to my reading list!!!
