Description

Eons ago a devastating and apocalyptic battle took place that rocked every dark and loathsome corner of the multiverse. In the aftermath of the battle, deities, demon-lords, old ones, arch-devils, angel kings and archon queens, not to mention other cosmically powerful entities were totally obliterated. Despite this history-changing occurrence, life found a way and life went on in a godless multiverse for an unimaginable length of time. And in time, even the mightiest and most popular gods were nearly forgotten.

But one day, in a universe unlike our own, an altogether fantastic and magical universe, a deity is born. A new deity. An evil deity. Join the aforementioned dark deity as he embarks on a quest to gain power, worshippers, and dark glory.

This story features a deity as its protagonist, but it's a deity who starts off alone in a dark and harsh multiverse. He needs worshippers to grow in power and has to earn his victories intelligently. He seeks to gain worshippers, discover the truth behind his genesis, and become the deity he is meant to be. He is a villainous protagonist who will hurt others, and he's unafraid to kill and destroy what he can't control. This is his story.

Please note: this story will contain evil beings doing evil things. Violence, gore, profanity, and sexual content will all be featured throughout this story.

    The plot in all is awesome. It's a great idea and the story line flows fluidly with nothing seemingly out of place. I would recommend this book to anyone who just loves stories like this. I love how ideas are tried in this and not just real life speculations. It helps create the fantasy aspect, while showing hey who knows this could have happened in real life. Like how many religions have many gods and different gods. Expect there's no evidence, who knows maybe they disappeared just like how all the gods disappeared in this story.

    Leaving a review of the beginning. I'm all caught up and I'm a fan of what I see so far. Here's hoping that it manages to continue at this high quality and with the fairly regular updates.

    Enjoyable read I like so far the authors writing style a few spelling errors (but nothing atrocious) so nothing annoying pulled me from the story
    To early to judge how things are going to develop but It seems like I'm going to enjoy the ride
    edit
    Ch92
    Still enjoyable read (slow at times)
    It's fun to watch the mc develop
    Ch 143
    Overall still a good read
    (the only thing that get on my nerves consistently is it's in 1st person (I'm just not a fan of that perspective))
    Still enjoyable though

    a very strong start! Let’s see where this ends up.

    I think my comment on Ch118 sums it up. There's nothing to worry about or tension. All the characters feel too 1D, sorry I just can't get any understanding of their deeper personalities. I think with Althos his maturing stage should have quite a few time skips to where he is no longer a child in action and thought. He should be someone that the reader can picture themselves as and agree or disagree with his choices mentally.
    A great story that has made an almost omnipotent god while still being a character with depth is Tree of Aeons, I reccommend the author and anyone else to check it out and see.

    This is something like a gym for writers. Where ideas and settings get tried and worked out.
    Well written, solid grammar.
    However, like other similar works, at some point the story takes a sudden, abrupt turn coupled with a complete change of setting.
    I get why, the author wants to try new stuff, but for the reader is jarring. If you are engaged a change so radical will rub you the wrong way.
    For a practical example : "the legend of randidly ghoshound etc. Etc." suffers from the same problem. After establishing interesting characters and world, it suddenly jumps to a new one. With new people I didn't care about, for a LENGHTY period of time. I skipped the massive arc completely.
    When it finally went back to earth, it changed everything and STILL ignored the parts we grew to love.
    So I understood, the author was testing and improvising while trying to avoid growing bored. And I dropped the serie hard.
    So if the author wants a tip : keep this diversion SUPER short. I can already tell from the structure that you have a massive serie of chapters dedicated to this whole endeavor. From a storytelling point of view, it is extremely ill advised, since you dropped it in the middle of an unfinished arc. Not really cohesive.

    ★★ 2.0
    Unreadable. The chapters jump back and forth between so much crap that I can't even begin to care about any of it. Either split the point of views between separate chapters or at least spend more than 2 paragraphs on each. You are not giving me time to become invested or attached to any of these people or stories before you jump away from them. And for God's sake man, if you are going to only give a character 2 paragraphs at a time don't freaking waste words redescribing what everybody looks like every POV switch. This isn't a freaking anime recap. Also, why the crap did you decide it was a good idea to break a fight that should have been done and over with in 2-3 paragraphs into multiple jarring POV breaks over several chapters? That is probably the worst way you can write a fight unless your goal is to bore readers so much they rage quit. I honestly can't even tell how the story was the POV switches were so bad.

    ★★ 2.0
    I like the premise of this story. However the prose is not compelling. There's a lot of repetition, such as the godling this, the godling that, the godling this, the godling that and so on. The prose need to expand in using more than elementary vocab and nouns...
    There's also too much telling what is happening rather than showing and the miniscule dialogues make the reading like an appendix.

    ★ 1.0
    Honestly the story just contains far much repetition and overly detailed, uninteresting and simple paragraphs.
    The author constantly goes on about one thing through several chapters and it's like he's trying to either write an essay or his target range is 8 and below and as this is a story where people often get tortured or die horribly the author has very clearly set the wrong tone.

    ★ 0.5
    This novel is trash. Constant repeated use of the words "godling" and "creature"
    Constant pov changes.
    Mc is a god yet is so incompetent that he needs to be handholded by 2 angels and a mental assistant.
    rather than being a dark god, the protagonist acts like some wimpy Japanese protagonist, trying to make friends with everyone, and letting everyone take advantage of him and stuff.
    Overly detailed and utterly uninteresting descriptions. This author needs to learn that more words doest not equal a better read.
    A good writer knows how to keep things short yet Informative, while at the same time keeping it interesting.
    This author has a long way to go.
