The Shadow of Great Britain

“Next, we have the most noble recipient of the Order of the Garter, the Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Grand Cross of the Bath, the Victoria Cross and the lower grades of Knighthood, the leader of the anti-colonial movement, the bell-ringer of the East India Company, the hero of the Crimean War, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a lifelong dear friend of literary giants such as Dickens and Great Dumas, a steadfast supporter of scientific luminaries like Faraday and Darwin, having served as assistant under-secretary, deputy under-secretary, and permanent under-secretary in departments of the Home Office and the Navy Department of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the inaugural Cabinet Secretary and head of the civil service, the first graduate and most distinguished alumnus of our school. Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

I'm leaving a review because this writer really believes in her work. She handed out flyers to this story at the anime midwest 2023 convention promoting herself while dressing as her characters. I'm a fan just from that! But this is actually a really good story and I'm glad she picked me because of my costume [img=fp]

So I want to like the story. it's a good story with sisterly love and I believe some romance I haven't got to that part yet. The girls are nice, and watching the siblings interact is sweet. The family is unpleasant but in a realistic way not one sided hate. My problem is the translation. It was fine at first but gradually it went from mistranslation like cabinets for kitchens to whole sentences and paragraphs that need to be reread and decoded. Again I love the world building and it's not super unreadable, but I don't want to spend money on a product that every chapter or so I go wait what, and have to reread things.

Wow. Weird to read a story about a Texan from a chinese writer. But meh. I gave it a read and it was GOOD. I'm not from Texas, so I can't talk about that. but...when the writer wrote about the Dallas vs Green Bay Packers game, Packers Rule!!! (Cheesehead ftw!) I knew this writer did alot more homework than most would think to do. I suspect he/she may have lived in some part of the Texas or Midwest area and so has some inkling of being America. Overall this was very good writing. And later...the Marvel hints to come...nice....hopefully this gets added to the full roster. Excelsior!!

It's really hard to come up with words to properly describe this book. So I'm just going to say that it simply is amazing and it is a proper Hitman novel. The protagonist doesn't go in guns blazing, instead sneaks into the location, takes out the photographer, uses that cover to get into the kitchens and systematically takes out the staff and ends it with him using the photographer as a cover to get close enough to his Target to assassinate them with explosives. To put it more simply I cannot wait for more chapters and I am looking forward to where the author takes this story. If the author is going to do any romance which I would personally love to see I don't know about other people or what your plan is this is just strictly a friendly suggestion. I think you should pick a girl from Akame ga kill so they can Bond over assassinations.
