    All right guys i will be sincer with you all. I read all books on Kindle and they are pretty good. well not best  what i read in my whole life (Miroslav žamboch, Koniáš) but maybe one of best what i read on Kindle.
    Story is starting slowly but steady and initiate us into large world of Crota and the rules and powers behind the curtain Also will provide us with story of simple man with little bit of luck, balls of steel, quick thought and some more luck. Fights are good wrote, fast and sometimes will someone strong die just becouse he make simple mistake, Overall it have own style with some depth in it with small inspiration from similar novels and I love it and need more of it. MORE OF IT!
    I dont want spoiler more, becouse here we are, at start of book one and nobody is interested  even in simple half minded spoiler. So have fun with Crota guys! i will be propably reread it with you once more!
    Also i want ask author where is second book of Overlord! we need it and need it now! so hurry up iam bored of checking kindle if you already updated it!
    with love

    This is my first comment on royal road. So if this isn't allowed please delete. In reading what I've read so far I want to purchase the whole series is there any date for the release of the 5th book in physical edition ? I know that the book is out on kindle but I like to have physical copies of my books and also I don't have a kindle. Thank you so much for your response.

    It has a quite long "introduction" but really interesting world building so far. A rough potrait of the mc with his traits and sills. Cannot say anything of the system and magic system yet.
    I quite like his other story, so I am looking forward to read more! . . .

    Not much has happened yet, we spend 2-3 chapters knowing the main character, then a good chunk of time of him trying to understand what's going on and needing multiple assurances that what's happening is real and we'll spend a bit more in character creation(took 2 chapters for him to choose a race), not to say the story is boring, the text "flows well" and we always learn interesting tid bits about the world. The main character feels neither that good or bad for now, some of his questions seem redundant, but it's not like he coud calmly read all the dialogue and his circunstances probably distracted him, only thing that annoys me a little is that he seems a bit entitled, I mean, yeah the gods summoned him by accident(actually a plot of one of the gods) and basically want him to die fast because he's an inherent threat to them so hating them seems fair, but he's constantly saying he was robbed of the advantages "sponsored" players have, like it's his inherent right to receive sponsorship(keep in mind he died before being summoned and chose to enter the game so he could revive, KNOWING he wouldn't have divine help), he also ignores the obvious advantage of having no sponsor: freedom of choice

    I liked this novel so much that when I had read everything the author had uploaded on royalroad (chapter 34 as of writing this review) I immediatly wanted to read the entire book which the author has already published however to my dismay the books felt off for some reason. So I started to compare the published books with what was uploaded on royalroad and I found out that the differences were very big. Sure the plot is the same and the entire idea of the book is the same. However the execution is very different what is uploaded on royalroad is much better than what is published, while what is published is not bad it is significantly worse than what is uploaded here which I found to be a real shame. The only reason I can think of is that the author has become a much better writer between publishing the book and rewriting this new version on royalroad.

    It's not great.  It would have to be magnificent at that pacing, full of character and relationships.  It's not any of that.
    But first a bit of vague story that doesn't matter, a time skip that doesn't matter, a multi-entry "will the MC be allowed to continue the story" arc, then the character creation tutorial and waiting for the slowest kid to finally pick all their starting equipment (bonus: going to be dropped into insta-gib area((bonus bonusption to skip being in this story)), no idea after that because I can only be morbidly curious for a certain length of time....  Reviews suggest this is the improved material.
    Style is glacially slow, awkward, and indistinct.  Stakes are real high for the (insert weird term for the multiverse).  1 entry devoted to giving parts of System piecemeal that would just be background in most stories. Lot of what I read would just be glossed over, now that I consider it.
    System is alien and clunky.
    Grammar is fine.  Sentences don't have useful info by design, not accident.
    Again, I did not survive through entry 15/16.  I may have read one of them twice because I thought I had missed the story start.
