- LomyrilRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5Art, they say, imitates life.
It's a sad commentary on today's society when I come across a good novel, yet it has a tragic beginning that reflects today's changed society.
I'm a fan of reincarnation stories. Typically, our hero will see a child wander into a street with a truck approaching. They somehow manage to save the child with a miraculous feat, yet get struck by the truck and die.
This common theme of reincarnation stories I've been reading has started to be replaced by mass shootings.
Don't get me wrong, the story is still a damn good one so far. Still, it saddens me that authors are starting to use these real-life tragedies to jump-start their stories. On the other hand, having our main characters then turn around from these senseless acts of violence to make a better future for themselves is heartening.
So far I find this story to be very well written, and entirely believable. Now on Chapter 5, I look forward to seeing how this story will develop. - hsteinvallRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5So far it is a normal reincarnation story with a vampire twist. The only thing that bug me is the details of baby life. The author clearly doesn't have any kids. Super minor thing though.
Also, don't mind Ronrironins strange comments about politics. So far there are zero political points made. There have been two mentions of a political group in the story, which I assume is what he is bothered about. The faction shares a name with groups or movements from many different countries and ages, and the fact that he took offense shows just how silly he is. We know nothing about the group, nor if the author supports their cause or not. - levitysoulwitRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0Right now I’m in chapter 6 and I gotta say, lots of great promise here. I can definitely see myself reading this for a long time. Mostly I’m thinking the story is what’s going to keep me locked in there. The MC is interesting and while the mother is a bit off, the newly introduced Francis looks like a keeper.
But...
The author has a clear political bias and isn’t afraid to show it. The fact that I disagree with the author isn’t the problem. It’s that if the seeds continue to grow from this small beginning, I’ll look for my reading elsewhere. Unless the author wants to add a political tag and just blantantly make the story an attack ad against half the readers on RR, the author should use more metaphor and less tongue-in-cheek preachy allegory going forward.
Regardless, for now I like it and will continue reading. If I’m still around, I’ll update this review when the story hits around 300 pages.
