Description

The Eternal Lion, Conqueror of the 98th floor, Lord of Destructionwatched in horror as his companions were slain, one by one. Humanity had made a fundamental mistake in assumption from the beginning, for this was no fair trial.

His rage knew no bounds, but alas it was to no avail. The only reason he still drew breath was because of a being stronger than even God offering him his twisted pity, making him watch as his companions, his sworn comrades, were slain one by one in front of him as a punishment for daring to affront Him.

He only saw one final glimmer of hope to overturn this accursed outcome, which lay in the reward for completing the hidden piece on the 98th floor.

Follow Noah Smith's journey, a young man struggling to find a job in a sluggish economy, as his life gets overturned and the fate of the world is suddenly thrust upon his shoulders!

Sometimes, an ant can see what the mighty lion, in hubris, overlook.

I really enjoyed the original that was written and this seems to be a more fast paced thought out version of such. I am quite the fan of the overall story direction and how the author has ideas on "gaming the system" so to speak the out of the box thinking is wonderful.

This is a rewrite obviously of his original story. I enjoyed the original, but the rewrite is indeed more tightly written and flows better. I look greatly forward to the rest of this story unfolding. If you like this genre even slightly you'll enjoy this story.
If you don't like Litrpg/apocalypse scenarios, then you still might like this due to the well written interaction between the main character and his *sidekick*. Give it a try all you might lose is an afternoon or two.

Grammer- The grammar was good, i didn't notice any real errors. In chapter 1 cheerio on the first line, you've wrote chucked to himself instead of chuckled. These are easy mistakes where your brain just sorry of fills in the correct word when your reading, so i didn't feel worth lowering your score for it
The style was good and consistent throughout, the system/exp part also looked good and was well written. Sometimes in these stories, the system part can ruin it if done poorly or takes up to much of the story, I'm glad to see this story didn't have that issue. The only part dislikes is the use of all caps for anger such as in chapter 4, it might just be my personal opinion but i dislike seeing all caps used in stories, it sort of breaks my focus in the story.
I found the characters to be likeable, from Noah in his struggle to survive to Liam, who had the personality you'd expect from someone in his situation. I enjoyed the pair interactions.
I haven't really read too many tower stories but I did find the story/plot of this one to be interesting and I am keen to see what happens in the next few chapters since I never read the original. Plus it gave a nice amount of interesting detail and backstory for Noah in the beginning, enough to make me care for what actually happens plus it was a nice chapter hook at the end.
Overall great job.

The rewrite of the Primordial Tower is a fun read.
The story follows Noah Smith, an average down on his luck guy as he faces the apocalypse. Chosen, or cursed, by the ghost of a man who failed to complete the challenge tower haunts him. Or guides him. With British humor. Noah must face the trials of the system tower in order to save humanity.
In a lot of ways, this story is a standard tower-climbing litrpg adventure. If you're familiar with and enjoy those types of stories, you'll probably enjoy this one, too.
Style Score: The style is unique, and as a reader, I can see the signs that the author has leveled up his writing skills. Tbh, I'm not a fan of most british humor (I know, a personal flaw - blame it on being spoiled by Monty Python and then disappointed by Mr. Bean.) That said, the humor is mostly tied to one character l, which gives the two main characters a sense of different voice that works well.
Story Score: I enjoy reading the story and will continue to do so. I also went back and forth on what I thought of they story's plotline when Noah was on the first floor. The storyline up to that point felt almost too standard. Which isn't bad, per se, but wasn’t remarkable either. The second floor, though, takes the story into a direction I really enjoyed. But that's only the plot itself. Pacing, chapter lengths, etc was all great.
Grammar Score: I didn't see any grammar, spelling, or punctuation problems. Granted, I am not the best at finding those, but I don't recall seeing a single one.
Character Score: No problems with characterization or voice. The british humor from the ghost character was annoying at times to me, but it was also annoying to the MC. So having the reader be annoyed at the same time as the MC for the same reason was very well done, IMO.
All in all, I recommend checking this story out, especially if you're looking for your next LITRPG to cruise through.

For Tower-Climbing Fantasy novels, this one easily ranks near the top 5 I have read(which as been at least a dozen), Character development is smooth and clear, good comedy which has been lacking in many novels recently, and a justified OP MC who has a unique plot armor that doesn't make him TOO OP. Overall 5/5 and I hope it continues to update consistently. Give it a read and I'm sure you wont be left with regret of time wasted.

There seems to be room for at least 98 floors so I hope we eventually get there. The plot so far has been really good and at a good pacing. Let's see how the schedule evolves after the 30 days. So far it's been 5/5, maybe it can keep going like that.

At the time of writing this review only a few chapters have been posted, I never read the original so I can't comment on any improvement that has been made, though I am not overly picky with grammer and spelling myself so I won't notice these things much or I do but simply ignore them in favour of the plot. However have found this version thoroughly enjoyable and hope that the writing continues to upload his work.

To be honest, it's the typical back-in-time trope, but with a new and (dare I say) elegant, british twist...
I like how the Author understands and incorporates different cultures (so far) and I'm quite entranced by the story...
There are a handful of grammar / spelling mistakes, but nothing that detracts from the story at all.
Definitely looking forward to more chapters!

Good start so far, seems like the author has gone back and made some improvements to the story based on some of the notes. I'd say they worked because I didn't really have any complaints in that regard and really enjoyed everything I've read so far. There are some typos and other errors here and there, but not enough to distract from enjoying the book
