Description

Delving dungeons by day, relaxing with cute monster girls at night.

When a God of War barged into his apartment, Jake had no idea what to expect... but it wasn't being forced into a never-ending war against evil invaders, or that the battle would strangely resemble the MMORPG games he loved.

Working hard and building himself up from almost nothing, Jake would need every bit of knowledge and preparation to master his new class of Summoner. Joined by a sly Demoness with an ancient past and a shy Valkyrie hoping to prove herself in battle, they'll find excitement and enjoyment as they level and grow in power.

Will Jake be strong enough to face the challenges of an evil labyrinth, or will he die and be separated from his new family forever, waiting to respawn in the void?

A novel that is more than the sum of it's parts, and is steadily improving as the author gains confidence and experience. If you enjoy Daniel Schinoffen or Virgil Knightley, you will probably enjoy this.
The author has written a very specific type of Harem novel that fits in a popular niche within that genre- the Cozy Harem Novel. It's just nice. The charicters are nice to one another, largely honest, entirely enthusastic about the MC and the grand adventure they are all on. Nothing too terrible happens to anyone, and all the really awful things happened off page, in the past. The MC has some reasonable concerns about intra-party dynamics but dosen't let them screw him up. Or the harem up. He actually listens when the women in his life tell him they 100% want a harem. It's just cozy. And you know what? Sometimes, I really want cozy.
I review novels on a like-to-like comparison basis, so two wildly different novels can both be 5 stars in their respective genres and niches. So, keep that in mind if you think I am too high or low- I am comparing to other Harem novels, and as much as possible, to cozy harem novels. Not Conrad's Heart Of Darkness.
Style- This is the author's first novel on this site, and frankly the early chapters feel kind of rough. A lot of webnovels, and particualrly harem novels, suffer from what I call "float." What does the refuge look like? We don't know. His old apartment, orginaly, and it's bigger now, but really, we don't know. What's the sofa like? The beds? How does it smell? Does one room have crappy lighting? We don't know. So we just kind of float in the setting. Same thing with the stats and spells- they are there, they have an impact on the story, but it lacks immediacy and weight.
On a more positive note, he can write action scenes quite well, which is not easy. You are never lost in terms of where the plot is, or what is happening, or who is in a scene. The author has created a nice framework in which he can te

Honestly, I love it so far. I think it's well written even without being edited professionally on RR. I enjoy the interaction between all the characters, the skill builds, and different races/types of classes and initiated included. Also, Im a sucker for summoners. Please keep up the great work. I look forward to seeing more of your work in the future. 🙂

I have found this to be highly entertaining. I enjoy the characters all of them so far looking forward to more of each of them and perhaps the addition of a few more. I enjoy reading this a lot because Jake's style mirrors much of my own place style in MMOs tend to be what most call over prepared for situation. I hope this continues for a long time the story is fun and very well written . The author has my deepest thanks for providing such wonderful entertainment and my deepest respects for being willing to share their art with us all.

I've enjoyed reading almost every chapter I have, there are some that are slow burn; however, it makes up for it with all the moments the characters are actually bonding, or spending time improving themselves and each other, or getting to know about each other's past. There are moments where you can see its rocky between the group, yet they come together and become stronger for it. I've enjoyed most of the characters that have been introduced and their personalities. Now some people may not like this niche and that's fine, I found it to be entertaining, funny, a bit stressful at parts due to the conflict, and heartfelt at others. I know it's one I check all the time during the week just so I can read the next chapter.
Give it a read and see if you like it! I know I fug right in once I got a bit hooked on it. The idea of good and evil Gods can be a little wonky but if you pay attention to sum of the writing you can see how ambiguous some of these "good" God's are with their decisions. I also really like the choice the Main party ends up choosing as their sponsore/God. There are some parts with the writing that can be jarring when referring to people or when a fight is going on. Yet if you have the capacity to string it together then it's not much of a problem at all.

No spoilers, but definitely worth the read. I enjoy all of the characters, although, I hope tha the author will continue to provide more character development for both the girls and the MC. I especially like being able to skip smut, since author puts them in their own separate chapters.

Amazing story!
(1) Love the system, very well thought out and developed.
(1b) Characters are well developed and they all continuously better themselves - we really get to know the characters and how they think over time. It is also amazing to see them grow and change as the story progresses.
(2) Things keep moving forward without being bogged down in minutiae.
(3) Struggle is against clearly evil abstract entity, so most of character interactions are all with good people fighting the good fight - makes story overall more positive in my mind.

As the title says, I see that this story gets massive inspiration from Dungeon Cleaners Inc by J. R. Saileri.
And honestly, that's not a bad thing. I actually quite like the setting from that book, which means that this one is very enjoyable.
Haven't found a whole lot of problems with this. The grammar is good, the flow is nice and nothing really feels out of place.
The characters are decent enough. Feels like the MC is a tad cardboardy while his lovers are more built up (which is kinda funny because in HaremLit is usually the other way around). There isn’t a singular villain per se, so I can’t really talk much about it.
The only thing I would say is that the Framework feels a little... sterile? Again compared to DGInc, the MC there has fewer interactions with the system but it feels more like what people would actually do in a universe-wide internet (forums, markets, bartering, etc.). Here the system feels more... I don't know, robotic? It's hard to explain.
All in all, it's a great book that fits well with other HaremLit works. Hopefully the author is able to complete this story and not abandon it.

This review is mainly for the author, who in the beginning never gets enough feedback if any at all. For readers, please consult other reviews!
Overall, I'd say it's a nice read. Nothing to invest hours in on end to binge read, mind you. But more of that later. Let's start with style straight away. I'm afraid... I'm not quite on board. The sentences are what they are, tell things, explain at times more than is necessary, add some emotion, and other tidbits of what I like to call dressing. Their structure is a bit rough around the edges, and the poetic frame I prefer, absent. Of course, that is something I like personally, so I'll take that away from the final rating on account of a semblance of impartiality.
Both in style and grammar, I feel a certain pull. As if you, dear author, have given yourself neither time to proofread nor a second longer to ponder over the direction the story is heading towards. There are many sentences I have beef with, the majority easily identifiable by making use of readily available grammar checkers. Exploring that direction as an alternative to feeling the dreadful urge to flood the audience with quantity rather than quality might also be an option. No shame in letting an algorithm check your spelling! I'm especially averse to reading what feels like a mesh of tenses. Sometimes the story's told in the present tense, at others past, and in between a mix of both. Some might identify such a choice as style, but I define it as lazy.
On to the story... I didn't catch up to the latest chapters at the time I ended up writing this review. That in itself says I have somehow lost interest in where this is heading. Gore, profanity and sexual content are not the reason. The overall direction is. From deep down I see where this is heading. The last chapters have only underlined the notion, taking much wind out of enjoyment's whimsical sails. There is no hardship, some elements dragging on for chapters on end and... progression merely in terms of gr

Personally, not a fan of the whole good vs evil going on with the system, but the characters are believable and enjoyable which make or break a harem for me.
Keep up the good work author
