He needs a vacation and a hug。 Okey, he got the hug。
Danny Moody,
I keep discovering series that are web serials。 Lucky when I catch up with the books, I’m able to go to Royal Road and read more so that is how I have read book 7 before its release。 I like that Jason got off earth but I was hoping for more monster surge and less political maneuvering。 Does he even fight with monsters any more?

Note: The chapters are available online pre-release。 I'm not sure I've finished the book but I'm 80 chapters in and it seems to be heading towards another story arc so I think I finished book 7。The whimsy and wonder I complained about being gone is back。 This book manages to be dark at a couple points that feels less grimdark/edgy and more authentic/meaningful too。 Definitely a better book than the last one。 Still, I am getting tired of the battle with Builder/Purity。 Big things take place in th Note: The chapters are available online pre-release。 I'm not sure I've finished the book but I'm 80 chapters in and it seems to be heading towards another story arc so I think I finished book 7。The whimsy and wonder I complained about being gone is back。 This book manages to be dark at a couple points that feels less grimdark/edgy and more authentic/meaningful too。 Definitely a better book than the last one。 Still, I am getting tired of the battle with Builder/Purity。 Big things take place in this book but it doesn't feel like it changes the stakes much by the end。 These books are fairly long, we've been actively battling the builder since book 3。。。 that's like 3000 pages by now。 Something needs to change the stakes。Also this is entirely personal but I'm having a hard time following the battles。 I know Jason's powers very well。 But being dropped into the other fighters' ability sets that were gone for three books。。。 even with the descriptions, I'm getting lost/losing interest。 It feels overcomplicated。 This might be a personal taste thing。This is still my favorite LitRPG series, and if I end up dropping it in the next couple books。。。 well I still had a blast with the first 5。 (And the first third of 6)。 It's been a great ride and I highly recommend it。 。。。more
Bryan,
Good to be back in Pallimustus。 The dynamic feels better again, and I've been more excited for what's going to happen in a way that, perhaps because Jason was so 'important', it seemed like it didn't really matter。 I want more character, but it would probably slow it down too much。 I do hope the cast continues to naturally expand without characters getting left behind, or having to make a 3 hour movie just so each super hero get at least a minute or two to barely do something。 A trick balance, b Good to be back in Pallimustus。 The dynamic feels better again, and I've been more excited for what's going to happen in a way that, perhaps because Jason was so 'important', it seemed like it didn't really matter。 I want more character, but it would probably slow it down too much。 I do hope the cast continues to naturally expand without characters getting left behind, or having to make a 3 hour movie just so each super hero get at least a minute or two to barely do something。 A trick balance, but as long as characters aren't being forced in for no reason I'm sure it will be fine。 Not sure what we're looking forward to at the end of this book, I know they still have purity issues。 I hope the author can find a character driven direction and doesn't just focus on "saving the world"。 I think that was one of the weakest points of the earth plot for me 。。。more
Noobitron,
Hi guys where can you read this book???????????????????????
Nevergreen,
I don't know exactly what the chapter split will be for this book but I think I've read to the natural pause point。 I was looking forward to this and while I wanted to get to where it was going faster, I liked the tension the feeling of 'but I just want it to happen already'。 As for the full macro plot, I'm confused on the details (not sure if it's because I've missed something or if it's just confusing) and and have reached the not really caring part。 Fanatical religious characters are a trope I don't know exactly what the chapter split will be for this book but I think I've read to the natural pause point。 I was looking forward to this and while I wanted to get to where it was going faster, I liked the tension the feeling of 'but I just want it to happen already'。 As for the full macro plot, I'm confused on the details (not sure if it's because I've missed something or if it's just confusing) and and have reached the not really caring part。 Fanatical religious characters are a trope I don't particularly like and that's super present in this series, with it being more prominent further into the series。 It's unlikely the theme will decrease anytime soon。 I feel like the next few will proceed like the previous books: first of the triad is good followed by two more that are decreasingly not good heading towards a shift in the story that'll revive it and make you want more。 Repeat。 。。。more

Arundeepak J,
3。75/5 Jeez。。。 Every character acts like the main character。 It might be hard to differentiate the characters if they give you the book with names redacted。
Wolkenfels,
Back from earth jason comes back to old strength。 the story is funny again and the supporting team is keeping Jason from making an ass of himself。 New intersting characters, a new political scene and even another country help to enrich the story with new impressions and not just repeating the stuff from the first volume。
