Alright, lads, I'll do a review for this book, for your information, I did read until 75 chapters, too bad I'm broke and I couldn't read more.
For starters the characters, fresh, simple, easy-going, I could easily imagine Ian, and the rest, so you wouldn't have any problems with this subject.
Next, the quality of this book, the paragraphs are well structured, the grammar is good for me, I noticed only a minor mistake, there is little info dump and you will notice it one a big paragraph, in short, well-structured book, with simple grammar and orthography that doesn't strain your brain, and I assure you, comparing it to other novels you will not have a brain stroke.
The plot, I like it, as a civilization 5 and 6 fanatics, I took great joy reading it, the story has a great pace, the combat scenes are enjoyable and short what I noticed in the combat scenes is that it's realistic on away, in short, the plot is good, the Mc has no plot armor, he thinks with his brain.
I had a bit of anger when he (the Mc) good some of his findings to his new "Allies", thankfully it was saved after (I won't say as to not spoil).
Anyways, it's pure kingdom building with some action scenes, the characters aren't dull they have great potential, the plot is well structured, the world in-game and IRL, is well built, I didn't have a copy-past feeling from it.
Worth your time and money.
