The first chapter of the story got me hypnotized. Maybe because there's a lot of Chu name and I honestly not use to reading a name like your characters. But anyways, the story is great.
I don't know why people hate it that much. I think this book is an enjoyable read and I would vote with about 4 stars (I just gave 5 to even out the hate reviews)
I like the story overall. It is very interesting and it certainly stands out in it's style. To each their own, the way that the story is described reminds me of some kind of strategy game. The levels and the way that people's power abilities are described throws me off. It's not really what I look for when reading a novel and makes it a bit less entertaining to me. But to each their own because a lot of people seem to love it and uniqueness always has its merits. I think the writing quality could use a few minor improvements along with the formatting. But a solid story overall. Wishing the author the best.
