King Of Limbo
Decided to make a new review after editing 150+ first chapters where I filtered out some content, fixed grammar to the best of my ability and tried making things more clear for any new readers starting the book. I've always felt it didn't make sense why some writers make huge mistakes but never go back to edit them but instead say things like grammar gets better after 100 chapters? Writing just to fill word count has ruined so many stories for me so I'm trying to avoid it, I recommend readers to comment in chapters or leave reviews if you ever encounter something bothersome. If it's a mistake I'll fix it and if it isn't then I'll be more clear with how I presented it should enough readers feel the same.
With that said let me give you a general idea of what this is
The first volume is one huge prologue and no I do not mean you have to see a pitiful MC cry and struggle. It serves the purpose of introducing readers to some characters and the world in a steady environment while still maintaining action and allowing them to grow knowledgeable of certain aspects of this story. The second volume kicks things into gear as we dive into the world of Limbo fully.
I was inspired to do this approach by certain series whose first parts start of mild. E.g Berserk. Where the first part starts readers off easy and gets them nice and settled before throwing them into a dark lawless world filled with adventure, cruelty and all sorts of characters, beasts, mysteries and challenges.
This isn't a tragedy filled linear story but one with multiple themes. It's dark yes but you'll also see mystery, adventure, exploration and perhaps even learn.
I also feel I should address although dark themes such a rape exist they will not be detailed or overused. In a realistic setting that showcases a dark world it's obvious things like rape and other sensitive themes exist but that's no reason to overuse them like certain stories that base their entire 'dark' theme around it. Murder, drug abuse, depression, harassment, dictatorship, they are so many broad themes to be explored and I want to touch upon them.
As I've mentioned in the synopsis the MC is neutral evil or at least somewhat so. Some readers are fairly picky and if an MC does one thing that doesn't align with such a state they call it out or something. In a realistic setting such a character who remains fully true to this alignment is quite hard to make but I'm not deterred from doing so.
Another important aspect in every story are antagonists and from what I've seen most webnovels don't provide us any memorable villains whose ideals or purpose we can understand. Most times we just get generic rapists, murderers or just people with no reason for existing at all except trying to kill the mc who some times is also a psychotic rapist and murderer who does so without reason. In this story I want to create antagonists who are at least 3 dimensional, yes random mobs may exist here and there but true antagonists are memorable and even liked by some readers.
N0 v el Next. CoM
Next are lemon scenes, yes these do exist given our MC's bloodline but it's in no way a driving force to the story nor should you expect a plethora of smut. Much like the lore chapters I'll make smut chapters in a way that anyone who doesn't want to read them can avoid them and still not miss out on anything story wise.
Harem? No. Lemons and encounters yes but no harem.
Romance? I really do not know how you can describe what you'll find here. I mean romance does exist in the world in general but for MC and those he associates with it's definitely grey as most things are done on a mutually beneficial basis and if not this then it's forceful. You will see the MC in what you can call romantic situations but if you're expecting care, love and self sacrifice then please don't read this book as the majority of characters that exist are twisted in some way or hold strange beliefs.
