Description
#Synopsis:------------------------------------------------------In the far future the planet earth is full, and thanks to 3 key technologies, genetic manipulation, cryosleep, and advanced space engines, humanity builds deep space spaceships and launch themselves to the unknown confines of space to forge a new future away from home.Follow our young engineer Erik as he starts on his first job at the young age of 60 years old in future earth where humans will live hundreds of years, he will reach an unknown place with his spaceship by accident and to survive he will have no choice but to explore alien structures and hunt dangerous monsters to get stronger, making alliances with the locals in more than friendly terms sometimes.------------------------------------------------------The protagonist is a young 60 years old "young" engineer, he's easy-going and a good guy, he's been trained so he will know what he's doing most of the time, in "Chapter 1 - A New Beginning" he will explain more, as a human from the future where bodies are just flesh containers, he's fairly openminded (kinda like "Altered Carbon" from Netflix, but different, you can go one day to a genetic center, pay, and get inside a liquid tank and then, the next time you open your eyes your body has already changed, then you get your ticket and go home just like that, but combat modifications would be regulated).------------------------------------------------------Hi, NirvanaPenguin here, suggestions on the story are welcome, this is a book I'm gonna write for fun and to get better at writing in preparation for a story I will start next year.------------------------------------------------------Discord: https://discord.gg/WPM7a4Dp4J

The book cover was drawn by myself(not the background though), I will try to make or pay someone to make a cooler one in the future though.

- ChromiumOS-GuyRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0haven't read much but you sold me on that Subnautica like crash landing in the first chapter, also sorry for the spoiler but its the first chapter so its not that bad that the Title of the review says it all (feel free to remove my review though!) words more words 50 words yes yes words with meaning wordies.
- TonioG04Royal Road★★★★★ 4.5Like a few other stories said the character are generally pretty relaxed and don't overthink the happenings too much. They just do what they feel like without any major/world-ending threats on the horizon (till now). But I personally like that because it makes them seem very realistic. After all being stranded on a living high-tech planted that you have befriended seems like a pretty safe situation if I have ever seen one. Furthermore while the Mc and crew have yet to encounter any major bachlash the MC in originally being introduced as a settler being prepared for any possible scenario through decades of hard work. That makes his general success pretty justified especially given his new high-tech equipment while the encounters enemies are are still within the trained worst case scenario.
All in all this story is a very good read that I can recommend for anyone looking a story where a competent MC just builds himself a nice hometown without any immediate world ending threat. All while still not falling into the boring silence of live trap.
(Though one has to be comfortable with the almost excessive fucking in the early parts that luckily doesn't fall into the true harem category.)
I really like the story and the author has yet to disappoint me with his quality.😉👌
I can't wait for the next chapter🤩 - jadecriminalRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0I only had time to get to chapter 7 today so YMMV
While grammar It's not realy a dealbreaker for me, looking up how to format stories, such as propper use of capitalisation, dialogue and paragraphs might be helpfull.
This has an interesting premise after all.
Now, I didn't make it very far today, only to chaper 7 so far the only red flag is the harem tag. If this turns into "excuse to rut with a harem of specific fetish demihumas" It would be a shame.
The images are a nice touch, I mean if light novels can do it why can't this story.
Additional tip: Posting everything at once if you have a backlog is slightly counterproductive for at least this site. Scheduled posting gets more exposure.
Plus, adjusting formatting or grammar of one chapter a day based on feedback is less of a chore then doing everything. IE good for learining and lessens fatigue.
4 stars so far, beeing slightly generous with ignoring the grammar and formatting stuff.

I plan to update more below this point as I get further in.
--- - DunimonRoyal Road★★★ 3.0So this story feels like the author is in a rush to tell it. Not as if they want to end it already but as in they're so excited that they miss important things. The concepts are solid even if they are so heavily inspired that it almost warrants a fanfic tag. Which isn't bad, in fact the premises for this novel and for Tamer are some of my favorite. However the execution is somewhat lacking. Character depth for everyone is extremely shallow and this tanks the story the hardest. The mc is little more than a prop for reader insert with how bland he is and how murcurial his character is. The surrounding characters have almost no personality beyond a set of urges and a veneer of personality that just goes along with the mc. In regards to style well there really is no style the story is so basic and lacking in any serious depth that style suffers for it. There is definitely a habit of tell instead of show with this author but it is so slight that I really do not mind it.
Biggest Cons are: The characters are as flat as Mario was in the 90s and the overall plot comes too easily for the MC.
Biggest Pros are: The 18+ scenes are good and hit the exact niche the author tries to.
Tldr: it's decent as a fetish story but quickly feels hollow as anything else. Still worth reading. - VyktorRoyal Road★★★ 3.0The story itself in interesting, I really liked what the author tried to do, its a story on a Subnotica-like works (submerged bases, alien tech, strange creatures) with mutations and evolutions. The condition of evolution, tech, etc, the author did research and give links for the reader that want to know more.
Then the author decided to dump all his sexual fantasy in the book... Futanary, group sex, rape (no, "soft" rape don't exist, even if the victim like it after the 1st time, it's still a rape), heavy use of aphrodisiac, etc... The MC don't stop saying he have a girlfriend he love dearly on Earth that was going to come after he build the 1st part of the base (in 10 years), then "I'll modify my dick to have a bigger one to fuck this aliens better!"...
At last une third of the book is only sex scenes, and it ruined my reading experience. I flipped trough the scenes without reading (only searching the end of it) and they really feel like someone hitting puberty with a 24/7 free acces to some of the strangest category of porn wrote them.
Sorry, I can't continue to read the story. Hope the author find a better public than I was.
Have a good reading everyone.
