Description

While on Earth, the Church secretly battles over the planet's destiny with multiple other factions; Gabriel was just delivering pizzas when he ended up in a battle among creatures that defied logic.

Sure, he thought,who doesn't love pizza?But do angels, demons, and big ass wolves eat pizza as well?

Gabriel was paid for his delivery, but the payment he got wasn't exactly what he hoped for, because for all his efforts, the man was rewarded with a lizard... and a world expecting a little too much from him than he was comfortable with.

Gabe will find himself in a different world, a world from which all Earth's current problems stem and a world to which he has more ties than he was ever told.

Will Gabriel and his lizard survive in a world so hell-bent on getting them to follow its rules, or will they die defying them? Follow their adventures on Alter, where elves, dwarves, orcs, and many more races share their existence with those of Spirits. Whether they like it or not.

Release days: once a week.

    I'm up-to-date with the story so far. It just started but the premise is really good.
    First time I find myself to read about something related to native american culture and religion that makes it for the title.
    I'll give advanced review when the story keeps on, for now, i can say you give it a try and it will be worth your time.

    Although it has a lot of anticipation por.n Herald for Spirits is a story worth reading. It has excellent grammar, story and world-building, it also has its own style is full of humour and has me waiting for the next chapter everyday. So read it! Damn it needs 50 words to post the review.

    Review as of chapter 30.
    I started reading this novel considering it just another litRPG; what i found was actually quite fresh and ejoyable
    The characters are actually well written and have the right amount of depht to them.
    The plot is complex and is being reveald at the right pace.
    The writing style is easy to understand and flows quite well, and i couldn't fnd errors.
    To any reading this review come and gobble this story up! Well i totally did up till now.
    p.s. cominciare una storia in pizzeria è il massimo! ;)

    The world-building that we get is interesting, but there's a serious lack of exposition - enough that makes it hard to follow the plot.
    There are many sentences which are grammatically correct, but that don't make sense because of bizarre word choices or idioms that don't make sense in English.
    There are lots of characters who get added to the story with very very little introduction, making it hard to keep track of them. In addition to the world having little exposition, the characters have little as well.
    The whole "Turtle Island" plot arc interrupted the main story for about half of what I've read so far (chapter 59)- I kept hoping we'd find out what's going on when Gabriel finally meets a certain character, but ... 59 chapters in and I don't know what the stakes are for the novel and half understand who a lot of the plot-relevant characters are and how they fit into the world.
    The main flaw is the lack of exposition, by far. Slowing down individual plot points would make the plot points that occur feel more meaningful; at the same time, the main plot needs to move on its digressions.
    I want to have a better opinion of it - I'm still reading, after all - and I get that the author is a non-native speaker. Being non-native doesn't mean not to explain yourself, though.

    Basically, you have absolutely no idea what's going on. There's a lot of info, but nothing which explains anything clearly. The MC seems to be working in a pizza shop with his mother and a worker soon to quit. The shop is busy and there are people who doesn't come on busy days. He gets a delivery and goes to some grand manor which has a Grove. Then he gets transported to some place, meets more characters (the hotness of the girls, their tit size etc would he described in great detail) sees magic working, waked up in an inn and goes hunting. He seems to be native american too. So where is he? Whats the place about? What's the church being spoken of in the synopsis? What is the herald? What is it that the people in the place do? Why do they have spirits? Lots of unanswered questions needing lots of editing to get straight.
    The synopsis seems to mention that the plot is very large, but it hasn't been explored in detail at all.
    The positive would be the scope and in general the system. Future development too, if it happens.

    The story premis is cool .. The writing is ok. It starts out rather well. But when the MC gets to the Den its like he was given a labotomy.
    But dear god the Main character is stupid.
    I gave up after just a couple chapters. There is only so much mindless stupidity i can take.
