- ParabelliumRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0Needs better exposition for the tech and the worldbuilding. A lot of things do become clearer as the chapters go on, but I’d still appreciate a bit more of an info package early on — right now I feel like I’m reading The Quantum Thief again (and honestly, all the nanite tech kind of gives off similar vibes).
That said, I read the whole thing in one go, so it’s definitely not bad — maybe I’m just dumb. Either way, highly recommend giving it a shot.
(Also, using breast as storage? LMAO. Put that on the cover art.)
