Magic-Smithing (RR)

4.5 stars. Not what I expected but it’s really interesting. Note 1: I don’t like the title, and I don’t like the cover photo. In fact, I created my own image using AI for this post as I refuse to…

Vampire and the Dayspring Star (RR)

5 stars. A really interesting “anti-hero” story, where the baddest of bad guys will do anything for her child. Note: this series is available for free on Royal Road. This story really got its hooks into me early. Oooooooh, we’re…

The Sect Leader System (RR)

5 stars. A cozy, slice-of-life story of someone who’s overpowered and brings up as many others as he can. Note: this web series is currently available for free on Royal Road. There are many LitRPG stories out there where the…

I’m Not the Hero, Books 1-2

5 stars. And enjoyable twist on the iseaki genre. There is an interesting premise to this series. Two friends from Earth are killed at the same time, and are iseaki’d into another world. One is the hero, and one’s purpose…

Mark of the Fool, Books 1-3

5 stars. A school-based story done right. I’m not usually a fan of stories that largely take place in a school, but Mark of the Fool strikes a really good balance against the usual tropes. I like actions having consequences,…

Portal to Nova Roma, Book 1

5 stars. Clever idea, executed well. Alexander is an AI, mainly responsible for taking care of a rich person’s child on Earth. With the death of the child, he decides to leave Earth for a new world. He crafts himself…

Beware of Chicken, Books 1-4

5 stars. Love it so far. I could see myself reading the whole series. It’s been a quiet July. I’ve found it difficult to get into any book. I tried picking up a book I started previously, and didn’t get…
