This is one of those novels where you can only shake your head. Besides the open nationalism and suptle racism the major drawback of this novel is the authors desire to lengthen each scene as much as possible. At Chapter 20 we have not even started on the whole space travel thing and the only important development has been the MC taking a drug to permanently increase his IQ (of course the aothor does not know what that is, but it is a convenient tool to use, when you don't know how intelligence, pattern recognition and knowledge transfer actually work).
Character development is also way worse than it should be after 20 chapter without any story development. We know the MC is smart and a virgin, that is all. We don't even know his motivation for going to space, anything about his mother or why he dislikes most of his family. He does not appear to have any friends, besides one who is constantly trying to get him layed. He does not have any hobbies, besides his new thirst for knowledge.
What did he do before this? He was a student and went trough special training, that is all.
Fuck, this is not Sci-fi, this is slice of life gone wrong.
Do not read, do not support such practices which needlessly increase word count.
