Small Chests Are Fine Too

Description

It is an undeniable fact that good things come in small packages. More often than not, it is necessary to trim the fat in order to bring what really matters to the forefront. Having extra bulk may seem like a good idea, but in reality it is merely a crutch that will one day become a hindrance, as it is no substitute for personality nor ability. Indeed, often times it is the small things in life that brighten up our daily lives and constantly remind us exactly why we do the things we do.

However, it is important to keep an open mind, for while bigger is not always better, there are also times when it is. This holds especially true when it comes to hopes and dreams, which have been known to require a suitably large container from time to time. And while dreaming big could potentially lead to massive dissapointment, one will never truly reach fulfilment if they think too small.

A truth that one small woman with meager aspirations is about to find out.

DISCLAIMER:This is a spin-off/side story of my main series,Everybody Loves Large Chests, which is also mandatory reading to understand this one. It runs parallel to the main plot, branching off from the chapter titled Upheaval 2, so there will be spoilers for anyone who hasn't reached that point.

Fantastic side quest from our favorite Gnome-shaped Golem!
BUT I guess I have to pad out this review a little bit in order to reach the minimum word count of 50 words in order to leave a review on this blasted website… Why would they do a thing like this??? ANYWAY, go read Everyone Loves Large Chests!

Unlike the main story, the side story of our crazy golemn feels alot more target in its theme, specifically depressing fantasy adventure.
I personally did not enjoy it as much as the authors other works but that is just because I prefer comedy (๑˙ー˙๑).
Spoiler:
I mean come on, all that death just "kills" my mood.

This is a side story of 'Everybody loves large chests' and follows the adventures of Fizzy after she is separated from the main protagonist Boxxy. While it is not necessary to read SCAFT to understand ELLC (though the other way round is), I recommend it strongly. You should read it after 'Upheaval' but before 'Year of the Chest' in the main story.
It's written in the same style as the main story, although there are barely any sexual elements since the characters relevant for those are elsewhere. The story is both funny and exciting and it's great so see the superhuman Fizzy be challenged by a powerful foe.

Pretty much the only reason I came was from ELLC and was satisfied.

Exterminatus brings out a spin off of one of my favorite stories to read, even over some professional novels, to focus on the adventures of a loveable golem. Everything is well done. The pacing, the characters, the humor, the growth and in the end im sad that its over, but its a bittersweet feeling as seeing something so beautiful come to a close. Ive recommended this and Everyone loves large chests to multiple friends and i cant wait for more from this stunning author

The adventure continues. This was a good stand alone adventure. More goofing off and silly mischief these characters create as simple as breathing.
If you liked even a fraction of the OG story, then i'm sure you will enjoy these little side arcs of bliss.
You either like it or you don't.
Go for it!

1. Style
I genuinely think Exterminatus' style really shines through here when compared to some of the earlier chapters of ELLC. There are tiny differences in tone and cadence that only really establish themselves after you've been writing for a while.
2. Grammar
Grammar has passing marks all around, I can read the story without getting frustrated and 90% of the time don't notice any mistakes for several chapters at a time. I'm sure this review has more mistakes than some chapters of the story.
3. Story
There's a bit of an issue with both ELLC and this story where new elements of the world or even entire groups of people are just suddenly introduced and thrust forward. No prvious mentions, no rumors or whispers, it just happens. Part of that could be put forward to ELLC's main character being ignorant of the world, but Fizzy doesn't feasibly have that excuse after living in cities for so long.
4. Characters
I enjoy unique characters that deviate from establish stereotypes, and there are plenty of those to go around. I just don't understand why so many of them cut the same busty silhouette with very minor deviation. Men seem to vary in height more than they do in muscular density, and a woman's defining feature is cup size or hip:waist ratio
