The Royal Bastard

It was honestly 5 stars for me until a teammate gets kidnapped and raped. This story was written as a wish fullfilment thing Nd i got to say...I would have died fighting for my people rather than watch this garbage happen in front of me. This is sick and a left turn out of no where for me in an other wise great novel. Too bad. Gotta drop it now.

The story and world seem well thought out and interesting.  The characters are a struggle to read.  I keep stopping and doing something else for a while before coming back to this.  I want to like it.  I want to enjoy it because the premise is one I like and the world seems interesting.  But I keep losing interest whenever I read character interactions.  The language thing at the start is really cool.  The wall/gate is interesting.  I really like the fire dog fight.  The premise of a mage in a cultivation world is a great one.  I have read maybe three or four books that try to cover it and all were either cut short (Essence of Cultivation) or fell off (Dao of Magic).The MC and a potential FL are really our only two main characters in the first twenty chapters.  The MC just feels off somehow.  Disjointed.  He has a lot going on and much of it feels like it doesn't have the emotional weight it should.  The FL is painful to read.  All the blushing, trembling, and other things she does rather than talking.  This is a woman that is supposed to be out risking her life in battle, has gone through some apparently harsh life experiences, and she acts like a coy 4 year old who is also a well adjusted adult?  I think the author is trying to run with the jade beauty cliche while also spicing it up/filling it out but again it just is not fun to read.I am glad I read it.  I would encourage others to read it to see if they can get past the characters.  But I won't be continuing from here.

darn it go pinish tales of demon and gods not start new novel.........................................................................................................................................

Well.....how should I put.. This is undoubtedly a trash novel.. But it's absurdly hilarious and I laughed my ass of all the time I read the novel.Its so bad that I don't even know if I should recommend it to you guys but it's also soo good ughh.P.S. : I read till chap 29 up till now

Another decent story ruined by a braindead MC. He eats a plant which only has a 5% chance of not killing or crippling the consumer, and he survives. Yay! He's not doomed anymore! He can slowly work on his cultivation, enter a good University, and- oh. He just ate two more of that plant.

Nice. Everything seems perfectly balanced out
