ARMOR (STUBBED)

Description

I was created as the ultimate dungeon trap: a living suit of armor that devours any adventurer who dons me. My master created me for his entertainment, leading adventurers to ruin and betraying them at the last moment. This time will be no different.

Or so I thought.

Now I'm living the life of an adventurer. Hopefully, my companions won't realize I'm not who, or what, they think I am.

If you're looking for an entertaining and fresh take on an agonizingly well-trodden genre, then you might be interested in this story. The enjoyability of the characters is something really important, as having boring or unlikeable characters really kills stories of this sort. With that said, I think the author has established a solid core of characters to build narratives around, so I can say I would recommend this. It's got everything I want in a semi-episodic adventure story: it's charming, laid back, and has likeable characters.

The execution was smooth and grammars has few errors base on my qualifications. This author feels like a professional one and he can convey emotions base on his/her characters personality. I dont usually rate this early cause of past "trauma" and most of my rate has "profound " comments . I'm not good at grammars myself BUT I can see mistake of others so I am sure and felt this author's deep thinking.. the MC dont have PLOT ARMOR. That makes it undefeated. But is strong from the start and not OP. I love this novel now.

The style of the writing is original, and the overall feeling is of an accomplished work. It has the good balance of adventure, suspense, intrigue, action, and most of all, humanity, even if the MC is not human at all. The development of the character and the world are very well done.

A very cool and fairly unique premise without isekai or litrpg. I think at the moment it's more of a start of a self-finding journey from a non-human perspective. With some deadly problems of course. I have immensely enjoyed the read so far and would recommend giving it a try.

Style is fine, easy to read and the fight scenes are well written. Nothing extraordinary, but also no boring or confusing parts or info dumping. We get to know the world step by step and in a relative organic way through the eyes - and past meals - of the main character.
The story has a lot of potential and could go anywhere, no clue what will happen next. One could argue that some events happen a bit abrupt, but until now everything had a reasonable explanation and could also be influenced by the main characters lack of knowledge in some situations. We've had a lot of run-ins with the forces of the antagonist, which is unusual for only 13 chapters, but I guess the main character kind of keeps stumbling into them by not dying early. It's been fun so far.
Grammar is fine, especially for this website. Both story and grammar could use an editor to clear things up and fix small things if it ever goes professional, but honestly it's pretty good.
As for the characters: First is the main character, extremely interesting, great first person perspective and the main reason to read this story. Their character is still growing or developing, eating meals, finding new things, knowledge and emotions from time to time. Something that's a huge plus point is the often non-violent approach to things. That doesn't mean he doesn't kill, just that he looks for other solutions when they are availbale. Quite a creative mind and an astounding amount of common sense. Often the side characters are more interesting than the protagonist, but until now that hasn't been the case. That brings us to the side characters, the companions. We don't have insight into them

Great characters, great plot, just an overall great story. Read it first here and borrowed it from KU just to support the author but ended up reading it again. 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50.

I typically don't commit to reading stories on this site until I feel that they're far enough along to where I'm not worried they'll die at the drop of a hat. This usually means around the twenty chapters mark, and maybe a couple favorable reviews.
If you're reading this review before my normal commitment point, then you likely were also drawn in by the story's excellent presentation (this review has actually been difficult to write, in part because Armor sells itself so well that its hard to sell it better). For you, allow me to say with confidence that the story is just as good as it appears, if not more so.
For anyone reading this after that common tipping point, I hope that this story continues to be as wonderful as has been so far. Its rare to see a fantasy story with such a beautiful style of "show don't tell" in a genre that is so heavily influenced by both the works of literary giants and the statistcal and detail oriented mindsets of video games.

this is still at the begining so i will probably change this review a bit after the story goes further....
It is a fantasy scenario that reminds me a lot of D&D. This is not a LitRPG so no system or anything like that.
The thing i like the most is that the characters are have depth and the main character beliaveble non-human. The most common mistake most autors do when doing this kind of characters is to make them humans with a diferent skin and forget to do the way of thinking.

Never thought the story about a suit of armour would be this interesting. I picked up this story because of its "Non-Human Lead" tag, thinking it would be something similar to other non-human stories. Where the only non-human part of the MC is their appearance. Instead I was pleasantly surprised by the authors way of handling it, managing to not make dear old rust bucket a 2D murderhobo, while also giving them a reason for their human like conscious and morals.
The story felt at times like a well planned D&D campaign, where the DM mashes together the players backstories beautifully, and other times it felt like it wandered outside of its comfort zone. Exploring new concepts and expanding upon the world. Implementing characters with depth, relevant backstories, and a plot worth exploring.
In conclusion, 10/10. Best rust bucket.
( PS, its armour, not armor ;) )

This is a great book for a new author. Yes it is unedited and yes if you need to read a fully edited book you can wait to buy it.
The premise is a different view o. A story that is fresh and well thought out. I really enjoyed this book and hope others can too.
