The Evernight Goddess stands higher than the cosmos and more eternal than eternity. She is also the Lady of Crimson, The Mother of Concealment, The Empress of Misfortune and Horror, Mistress of Repose and Silence. I pray for the power of the dark night. I pray for the power of the mystery. I pray for the Goddess’s loving grace. I pray for concealment to every spoiler i might face when saving up chapter
Another amazing novel in this thrilling tale of... wait, what's happening again? Oh, right. Nothing. The so-called "Circle of Inevitability" means that the story will inevitably lead to the same thing we've seen a million times before. It is just a fancy way of saying that it is leading you in circles, never getting any closer to a satisfying conclusion, on a never-ending treadmill of disappointment. This novel is a masterpiece in its own right. A masterpiece of disappointment, confusion, and nonsensical plot points. It's boring, repetitive, and lacks any sort of direction. The writting is a confusing fake philosophical mess. The pacing is slow, the dialogue is boring, and the characters are forgettable. The story is so bad and filled with endless plot holes. There is no comedy and nothing is ever explained. The side characters are all unlikeable and forgettable cardboard, one dimensional, and their purpose is to provide useless information, and to be the servants of the main character, following him around like pets. Anyone that the Mc meets instantly becomes his friend for no reason. The main characters sister has no backstory at all and does nothing the entire novel. She just sits in her room, waiting for the main character to come back home so that the rest of the filler bloated chapter can be filled with their pointless conversation. We don't know what this story is about, or what the point is. The only thing that's clear is that the person who wrote it has no idea what hes doing, that the rest of the novel will be repetition and filler. The main character is revealed to have no free will and is just the NPC pawn in some predetermined fate. He acts like a little kid, insulting and embarrassing everyone. His personality is inconsistent, annoying, and lame. He is a total hypocrite, a paranoid lunatic with multiple personalities. He is boring, with No backstory, no identity, no beliefs, no development, no dreams, no motivations, no education, no emotions, no goals, no habits, no hard work, and no intelligence. Just what we need, another poorly written cardboard character that cries complains all the time, gets everything handed to him without actually having to do anything, and only survives because of luck and fate. Fors, who acts like the mystery woman is just a plot device, nothing more. The writer probably thought, "Oh, I need to give my MC some powers and advice. How about I introduce a long forgotten character who wants to help him for no apparent reason?" She is introduced as traveler. But all she does is be the typical NPC waiting for the the main chsracter to arrive. So that she can hand him all the beyonder information he needs, and all the pathway recipes like it's no big deal. Every single chapter follows this script: 1. Wake up and think about becoming a beyonder. 2. He decides to head to the local tavern, to chat with his "friends" (who are really just acquaintances he's too polite to avoid). 3. While at the tavern, he gets some information from the mysterious woman. 4. He heads back home to look and talk to his sister. 5. And then it's off to bed, where he enters his dream and becomes more powerful without any explanation or effort. 6. Info dump or new plot point is introduced and the next few chapters will focus on it... until it's ultimately forgotten about and the endless cycle repeats. This novel will leave you with many questions, such as "Why did I waste my time reading this?" and "Is the writer just messing with us?" If you're looking for a good read, for an exciting journey or a good adventure, you'd better look somewhere else because this novel is a one-way ticket to Yawnsville.
It was going so well for almost 300 chapters and then suddenly it felt like the translator discovered the thesaurus app and started chugging it like a newborn baby. Flash news translator- using big words doesn't make you smart. It's just annoying to read. Too bad but I'll be dropping this. I'm giving it 1 star only because of wasted time. Such a shame.
this is not a sequel to lotm 1. I'm struggling to connect, I wanted to read about tarot club and church of the Fool and the characters that I grow to love from the first book. I've read every book that cuttlefish have written and loved everything but I found this decision a very stupid one and a deal breaker for a lot of people.
