I'll be honest, this review will obviously have some author bias.I personally feel this is an epic story. It tells the story of someone who has known struggle all their life, suddenly thrust into a brand new world, and losing everything once more.It's also a redemption tale, and one that should resonate with any reader that picks it up.Or, I hope so.Now, a major criticism many readers will give is the slow pace. However, give it up to the 10-12th chapter, and the current will flow much faster. It would do you good to just read the story and enjoy Liu's adventure.Another criticism would be Liu's pettiness and personality display at the early point of the novel. Remember, even if he's reincarnated, it doesn't mean he's one wise and mature sage. He was bred in a cruel environment which makes him selfish, petty, and very self-centered. Obviously, with character development, he grows.Other than that, I think it all boils down to individual taste. Please don't unreasonably hate on this book just because it doesn't do what YOU want. I'd like to hear your opinions through comments or reviews. I'm always willing to grow and learn. Thank you all for reading.
