๐๐๐๐๐๐ :
One of my most anticipated releases of 2024 โจ๏ธ I would say, is a general statement that I did enjoy this one, most especially the detective plot and mythology this novel inclined to.
The writing is quite good. It was engaging and immersive enough for me. Although I did feel that the writing was more of a romancy-writing, mixed with the mystery and the fantastical vibe it imbued to.
The world building or the lore, although fascinating in my opinion and reminds me so much of a mix of Tale of the Nine Tailed, Doom at Your Service in some wayโ I feel that it was quite lacking for me. I definitely wanted to be more engrossed towards the world, but sadly, I think it wasn't vividly as I wish it to be.
The mystery, the detective, the Fallen God plot was so good to me, I was obviously eating it up, reminding me so much of Loki, that's why I was quite excited and wishful it had more of Seokga and Hwanin content. I think I would have enjoyed it more if it was more of that content.
Furthermore, it was more plotty, which I did like, another thing I thought, is that I would have enjoyed it more if thereโs no romance? Not that I didn't like the romance, I did like it in some lengthโ I just think I would have enjoyed it more if there was no romance at all. I think I would have preferred them to be like a duo? Partners in chaos and all things and like that.
The characters, on the other hand, were okay. I just think the way they were written was more of 'romancy' formula. They didn't feel like a character that is over a thousand years old. Other than that, I also find Hani a bit annoying at times. She seems to be spiteful without much depth to it. Seokga, on the other hand, didn't present as cunning, in my opinion. Despite that, that didn't mean I didn't like themโ I like them overall. It's just that I just find them lacking.
Overall, I think this was a good read. I definitely did enjoy it, most especially the concept and the lore, the writing in general, as well. I think this will have a sequel? Or perhaps a prequel. If there is, I definitely will read them, especially the prequel if this book will have one.
Thanks for the free book, PRH International and Del Rey, publishing for the e-arc ย โก
