This book have really a good start introducing the earlier stage of protagonist. Each chapter consist a good amount or words, so it's not that short and not that long. Since it seem to develop slowly, reader must be patience and take your time reading this book. I still not quite grasp about the world background, we might get more description on the world building of the story.Its really refreshing to read a book that not similiar plot like those popular book in this platform. I hope as the author progressing the story. It plot development will get better and unique. Overall, this book is recommended. I hope you guys also try to give it a chance.

(PART OF REVIEW SWAP) Warning: Everything I say is subjective and it's just a reader's perspective and all that. I'm just one person, and this might not be my type of novel. First Impressions: Wow, those really are 4 whole chapters before the first chapter. I've never read a book where the glossary was at the start, but it kind of worries me that you might not explain it later on since it's already here. I kind of skipped over 'Nightshade' since I'm not a fan of reading dictionaries. Onto the prologue. I actually think this could act as chapter one since it introduces your major characters. Now, I know that prologue is just another word for introduction, but I noticed that a lot of people just skip the prologue and jump into the first chapter, which is not great, especially when you have multiple prologues. The writing is great. I think the grammar is almost perfect, though there are some things like putting a period before a quotation mark ("like this.") and putting a period before continuing a quote ("Like," said Dan. "I don't know if that's right"). Other than that, you have good descriptors and an overall nice writing style. There are some things like Kael saying "Was it a dream?" like three times in a row and also talking to himself though, so I think the dialogue can be improved just a bit ("I can't just accept that some shadowy figure appeared out of nowhere and started talking to me" is kind of a strange thing to talk to your self about. If it was me, I would've had the whole sequence just be him thinking in his head instead of whispering to, particularly no one). Characters: Now, I only read the prologues and skimmed the next few chapters, but so far, it's pretty good. I like Kael as well as Jake - while he lasted. It looks like a solo adventure so far, which is good, but it might become a problem if he keeps talking to himself. It might just be me and since I don't talk to myself, I don't know if that's how it works, but since this is a novel and not a movie, I think he can just keep his thoughts as thoughts. As for Kael, he's a good old protagonist. He's curious and adventurous - more than the average person. What more can I say? Plot: So far, it's looking like a good 'isekai-type' adventure. My only complaint is that it's a bit slow. So far, we're in the real world, researching, then go to this new world (Forrest) and then he's at a meadow by the end of chapter 2. Bot counting 'Nightshade', it took us 4 chapters to get here, but I think it could've been done in two (maybe even by just stitching the chapters together and tweaking some things). Chapter 2+3 and Chapter 4+5+6. I'm not saying you should change it that way, but it just feels like a natural progression of plot for me. Final Review: Too many prologues, good writing, and good characters, but Kael talks to himself too much, the plot is fine, but the pacing is a bit slow. Overall, I think this is a good start but of course, you can revise the chapters f you want to. What I like to do is keep a 'definitive' edition in a Google doc, as the final product which encompasses all the chapters. There I make changes like swapping chapters and such. I have a pipedream of publishing so, lol. So far so good, 8/10.

Rise To Stardom

Orphaned in the old world after taking care of his irresponsible and sick mother for years on end, Kyle finds his life turned upside down. His already dim world turns even gloomier and coupled with his trauma from losing her, Kyle felt like he had lost his purpose in life. Living day by day, akin to a soulless puppet, he struggled to keep his suicidal thoughts in check, all whilst trying to make ends meet as a cabbie. During those dark times, Kyle slowly begins to find solace in the world of music and movies. Even though it had always been there, it truly became something as a bloodline of sorts for him because, individually, both pieces of media, transported him to another world, one where he could feel happy, if even for a fleeting moment. And, as if the universe wanted even more for him, Kyle met some lovely old people, all of whom treated him as the son they never had, making him feel like he had a family after so long. This eventually, helped him let go of his trauma and turned him into the lovely soul he was always meant to be. But as fate would have it, these same people, wanted for Kyle to pursue his dreams because they saw the potential for greatness in him and the wonderous things he could go on to do, even if Kyle himself was oblivious to it. So, in an effort to make his dreams come true, they ended up gifting him a brand new chance, one that Kyle himself would only go on to realize after his untimely death in a fatal car accident. Now awake in the new world, still orphaned but with a brighter perspective on life, Kyle, armed with a System, another gift from his loved ones in the previous world, decides to take the chance to pursue his dreams of being a star, one that he was unable to pursue in his previous life due to his lack of talent. This is the story of a man who will go on to become the most versatile and renowned superstar all over the world... and it starts, just as he takes his first step into the cutthroat world of fame and fortune by registering for the popular singing reality TV competition, 'Rising Voices'. Known to be a fiercely competitive TV show, Kyle will meet with top contestants from around the world, go up against them, level up and become better, and ultimately, battle with them for the number one spot in the show as a dark horse! --- |AUTHOR NOTE| Just wanted to make it clear, that the singing competition which will be the first arc of the novel, will end around the late twenty-ish or early thirty-ish chapters. After that, you can expect so much more from the story so look forward to it! Also, although the setting is in a parallel world, all the songs, scripts and movies (although I will draw inspiration here and there), will be originals penned by yours truly (-‿◦).

Limitless The Strongest Revenant

"If you intended to die anyway, don't die quietly like a pussy! Go out in a fucking blaze of glory!" That was the statement that changed my world forever. I was a loser in life. I died and got reincarnated into a Revenant. Revenants were people who defended the living from the dead. In exchange for a second life, they had one task and were blessed with one cheat ability. The task? To kick as much zombie ass as possible. Unfortunately, my cheat just made me "Rewind". It didn't give me super strength, speed or the ability to fly. Hell, it didn't even give me a way to fight! Without any way to kill zombies, I nearly died on my first day on the job! Back then I remember crying and puking all over the place like a little bitch. But while I started out like a little bitch, I didn't stay one. Dying full of regrets changed me you see. So much so that I made a promise. I refused to repeat my mistakes when I was human. Reborn as a Revenant, I will never bow down to anyone ever again. Unfortunately, these Revenant bastards were old school. Like they hacked zombies with swords and all that crap old school. As a man born in the USA, I saw no reason why I needed to follow their outdated way of thinking. The modern world had the superpower of gun powder and lead. So instead of swords, I came after every zombie I saw with guns. Like countries in the middle east, I proceeded to blow the motherfuckers to kingdom come. And surprisingly because of "Rewind", I found out I could never run out of ammunition. $200 for each kill. Hefty bonus for each area of hell liberated. What scared normal people shitless suddenly allowed me to earn millions every day. The richer I got the more "Freedom" I could unleash! Mortars, tanks, air strikes to even nukes. Backed by modern science and technology, I slowly but surely drove the undead back. Along the way, I met and saved seven heavenly beauties. And all of them fell in love with me. They were a little obsessive, scratch that, they were all fucking insane. My precious harem was comprised of nothing but Yanderes in every sense of the word. Still, I would willingly burn the entire world for any of them. For when I called, only my battle harem answered. And that was even before I learned of another secret. Exchanging bodily fluids with my girls gave me their cheats. Suddenly, in contrast to every Revenant in the world who only had one, I alone wielded eight. One from each girl plus my own. And so unfolded my 2nd life. Which eventually became my legend. Who am I you ask? I was born as John Smith. But these days not even my girls use that name. Both on Earth and in Hell everyone else just calls me Limitless. And I am the Strongest Revenant. *************************** Author Notes: Harem size: 7 | No NTR | No Yuri | No Grape Novel Focus: Action, Adventure, Urban Fantasy, Reincarnation, Dark, Weak to Strong, Battle Harem, Beautiful Heroines, YANDERE Heroine, Military, Loyal Subordinates, Kingdom Building, War, Politics, Conspiracies, Overpowered, Face Slapping, Tragedy, Character Development, Multiple POVs, Betrayal, Alternate Realities, Demons, Zombies, Superpowers, Tower Climbing, Tower Defense, Wish fulfillment.

Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

VOLUME001 Ethan's dying wish I was left paralyzed with only a month to live, but that "9-inch" part of me was still hard as a rock. Even the sickly beautiful schoolgirl couldn't resist my "pecker," and to fulfill my dying wish, my sister even dressed up as a lady in black stockings to teach me how to "drill." What's more outrageous, the hospital nurses wanted to make a little movie with me, lining up with the head nurse at the front... Just after coming out of the emergency room, I saw the system panel: Name: Ethan Jones Gender: Male Length: 9 inches Skill: Hard as a Rock LV1 Note: Peak human hardness Dying Wish: To caress auntie's sheer black stockings Task Reward Points: 1000 points Despite my strength and stamina attributes being only at 1, and my agility at 0, only my "pecker" could lift the heavy blanket while doing squats. My face was full of question marks—what kind of bug is this system? Just because I like looking at auntie's legs, did it give me such a special skill? Now, I have no choice. I must complete tasks to earn points and add attribute points. However, the story actually begins 12 hours earlier... VOLUME002 Ryan's death mission Ryan had been diagnosed with late-stage heart disease, and as he neared the end of his life, he unexpectedly received a miracle drug from Ethan that brought him back from the brink. But Death wasn’t ready to let him go just yet. A year later, during a rescue mission at an orphanage fire, Ryan tragically lost his life. But did he really die? No, Ryan awakened a whole new system. Wait, what? He has to be killed by five girls, one after the other? The only way to come back to life is to die? What kind of twisted logic is that?! But if that’s the only way to survive, then so be it... Just, could you all not feel bad about killing me? And falling in love with me—what’s that about??? The gears of his fate quietly begin to turn... VOLUME003Ethan's new body Ethan has traveled back in time and gained the ability to swap bodies with a girl named Lila. What kind of story will unfold from here? Let’s wait and see... *********** Update Daily! 10:05 AM PST Please show your support if you enjoy the story! How can you show your support?
