Certainly not a masterpiece or anything. The plot was hard to follow and the editing was horrible. The characters were painfully one-dimensional for me. All in all I found it too long to get into the plot and it took itself way too seriously. The fact that so many ppl rate it 5 stars is beyond me and the way people hold it up you'd think God himself had written the damn thing. But worst of all this fandom is toxic af.

    The idea to write a 1 star review after reading 29 chapters is truly laughable...

    Lol. I kinda understand why all this is happening even though I haven't read LOTM. you'd have to read the prequel before this one. this is more like a part 2, so there are some information, details and even nuances you'd probably miss if you don't read the part 1. the whole situation here is like, imagine someone insulting Tbate or shadow slave, I wouldn't be happy about that or a situation where you find a bunch of readers seemingly mindlessly hyping up a book without providing any form of context as to why it's the holy grail. It's simple, to read this well and maybe enjoy it, you'd probably have to try the prequel. There must be a bunch of details there you'd probably miss if you start with this one

    İ belive you just drop the novel and also you didnt read first book . So you probebly dont understand why peoples rate 5 stars . You didnt understand information that given or recognize charackers from first book. İt s stupid to make fun of the people who like and give 5 stars. You more likely want to reduce stars from 5/4.9 so i advice read first book and read second after that or give some realy thinked reviev.

    The fandom has two sides which are probably best described as a cult, and then normal people who enjoy a masterpiece (just not as cultish). Of course I see a lot of very dumb reviews on here from relatively stupid people getting dislike bombed but sometimes their absurd lmao. I can't really say anything about the characters and editing since I have yet to start reading it, but this is a sequel to a very long novel so it is probably relatively hard to get into without reading the prequel, of course Cuttlefish wants it to be new people friendly but it doesnt seem very easy.

    Even though I disagree with giving a novel a 1-star review this early, you atleast give an explanation. I've already spoken about this several times already, but I have to mention that I agree with you that the other reviewers are extremely illogical and ignorant. They aren't even giving any explanations for their reviews but are just worshipping the author and fondling his meat. Their behaviour is extremely cultish and hypocritical, and they can't handle someone not sharing the same opinion as them. You should get ready for a waaaave of dislikes.

The beginning is not as slow as the prequel, this is a classic W by the author of Lotm. What can I say more ? You have to read it, it actually lessen 4 to 8% of your depression :D

This is novel is slow paced, and is not how I like it. Yes, I know that prequel was great and know why many people would like it's sequel but for me sequel now is slow paced considering we are 1500 chapters in the series. Also don't judge me on based of how can I write a review after only 30 chapters because other have done the same.

  • BLNKD 5

    Sure, this is almost 1500 chapters into the series but Cuttlefish has also said that he is making this book in such a way so that new readers can pick this book up without being spoiled by too much as if it were a new series. My only issue is the validity of your review, this review is about Book 2, not Book 1, if you're calling the sequel 'slow-paced' then I doubt you've even read the first book. Calling Book 2 slow-paced is akin to slapping Book 1 in the face, this is following an extremely faster pace than the prequel. Much faster. It just makes it seem as though you're leaving this review just to lower the average rating so some 'other novel' can overtake it.

    I understand your disappointment with the series, but I think you can it view from this perspective - although the series is more than 1400~ chapters in already into the story, this segment starts from the perspective of a fresh character introduced with this sequel. Had it been a continuation of the prequel's plot, your disappointment would have been valid - but much like LOTM, the introduction of a fresh perspective to an already incredibly rich plot would take some screen time and slow development. I hope this makes you reconsider and introduces a fresh take.

    do u even read LOTM 1 and understand why this novel is slow pace ??? the title itself is lord of the MYSTERIES .. this type of novel is to build suspense, to unveil things step by step, if u didnt even read lotm 1, why even bother come here and complain ???

    You are complaining about the slow pace, did you read the pre-quel? If yes then your argument makes no sense.

Chinese bestseller and one of the best fantasy novels out there, LOTM's sequel: If you think it is unfair to rate it 5 stars on the basis of the first 32 chapters alone, then you're completely wrong. These 32 chapters scream quality writing and a well organised story, which is different from those novels written by 12 year olds.

This novel does not desereve anything less than a five star rating in my opinion, just the first five chapters were enough to get me hooked and the more chapters are released the more i want more to be released

probably better than the first book, at least we will see some serious action from him. I like his character more than Klein, 'HE' was just way too kind for his own good, this kid seems like to be cold hearted enough to be suitable for the red priest path since its basically the path of a God of War. and finally I hope he won't be a virgin forever like Klein, I understand that klein just didn't have the chance but the absolute lack of romance made the first book a bit lacking overall and it was also the main reason that I believe the first book didnt deserve a 5/5, the right score should have been 4. 7/5 IMHO.

        I agree with you on the Klein part, but romance would just ruin the novel. A coldhearted mc who is in a relationship that holds him down never made sense to me. Also feels like romance would lower the amount of time the author spends on stuff like world building (which is on of the previous novels greatest aspects). But I guess it's your opinion and you're allowed to like anything you want.

        I meant real romance of equal parties, not a heroic man picking up damsels in distress like cabbages. I believe in gender equality and hope to see a novel where a pair are truly fit and of comparable strength and intelligence, I don't think a pretty face and gentle demeanor are the full aspects of a real FMC. so NO he wouldn't get dragged down by romance that I have in mind.

This is a must read, for the mystery genre. There is really no more need to say more, just check out all the other FIVE STARS review. ( the few almost none-existent below five stars are just here to sabotage this amazing novel ) Ima sure everyone agrees ❤️❤️❤️

It has long dragging descriptions, often sidelines from the plot which unneasesarily drags out the pacing. This novel unlike the old one doesn’t really utilise the horror aspect of lovecraftian horrror making it simply less enjoyable for those who haven’t read the prequel to this. And miss, I don’t want you to Reject this novel because ‘read before review’ because you are then clearly ignoring 100+ other reviews below.

  • SinOfSloth 1

    did u give this review after reading 100+ review instead of reading the 1st book and ongoing book? and giving review so early... and when u wrote it there were not even 25 chap. u should "read befor review".

    "often sidelines from the plot which unneasesarily drags out the pacing" - Chapter n/a I don't know if you have been reading this at all or came here from another website to leave a review, but if you've read Book 1 then you should know that most details and even in some of the most minor of events the author tries to implement some sort of 'hint' or foreshadowing which would later be uncovered in the later chapters. "making it simply les enjoyable for those who haven't read the prequel" this is just your subjective opinion currently, you can argue a lot of people who read the prequel didn't enjoy the beginning because of a lack of suspense or anything in particular, Book 2 has released too few chapters so far to make a judgement like this.

    1: dear lord what is this gigantic block of text from Everythingblue09 2: I just realised, you giving a negative review(nothing wrong with that) about your opinion on the novel(nothing wrong with that either) which went fairly into detail instead of just “I don’t like this”(very great), ONLY that you did all this, at chapter n/a, not even 1 or 2, n/a(which means the previous things which could be counted as positive things in a review has just been flipped into an even more bad review, and not in the way the review says novel is bad, no, the review itself is bad. 3: I was gonna ignore the hate reviews and not dislike, but the fact you went into detail of what you didn’t like of the novel, while not having read the novel prompted me to dislike anyway.

        So basically you're hypocritical to sum it up. But atleast you're honest, and I do understand the reasons you stated for your double standards. I've also noticed that your other comments are all quite rational and positive, and you never make up stuff unlike other people. I respect people like that. So you have my likes :)

    (continued) I might be a broken record repeating beautiful just for it. *cringes but continues to write anyways* So when someone writes a review and gives the worst possible rating without any explicable rationale. It gets me (US) especially mad you know. Yes, maybe we are heretics these days, promoting Mr. Fool this, Mr. Fool that, bullying the people who give bad ratings, disliking comments, being toxic, or whatever but we do this cuz we love the novel. Wbu? Why do you hate it? I can write a 100000 pages essay just to express how much I love LOTM so wbu? Give us some constructive criticism. Meaningless hate just gets on my nerves you know. If you want to write a bad review then write it when the novel is bad. It's quite simple no? So the actual question was it so bad, that it deserved a 1-star review? The answer is obvious and we all know it. So sorry for being a b*tch. Bye bye.

    (Continued) And lastly, I am sorry, sorry for disliking your comment which did not provide any authentic constructive criticism and whose last line I could not understand at all. I apologize on the behalf of all those who disliked your comment and are also textually abusing you. And I am sorry for my harsh rebukes too (my eng teacher has always nagged me about how I don't know how to sugarcoat my words at all lol) It's just that I guess our passion/love/eagerness for this novel is overflowing. It has already filled up a huge ocean lol. But I guess we can't help it you know? Lotm was such a wonderful book. Its insanely cruel yet beautiful world was rather indelible. Klein Moretti, the protagonist of the novel was a beautiful human being, he made me think about being a human, you know (idk how to explain lmao). It's plot, characters, elements, dialogues, world building, story, everything, was beautiful. I just have no other words.

    (Continued) The horror you say? It's alright if there is one thing that I can promise with my life at stake is that cuttlefish knows how to psychologically f*ck up a person. I love horror, especially Lovecraftian ones, and believe me, cuttlefish would one night begin to haunt your dreams lmao, wait you have read lotm and love craft right? Then you especially should realize that the horror first probes, then slinks over, then beckons you into its embrace before grazing and crawling over your skin, and then it finally protrudes under your skin, devouring and draining all your blood and flesh before it finally swallows you whole and it becomes you. *facepalms* what I meant was that horror is probing or slow at first. You won't feel it right from the beginning. [as a fan of HP Lovecraft as you said you would know it right? How his horror was of this kind too] So don't expect an outer god descending in your n/a chapter number. But it's cuttlefish, so who knows *shivers*.

    (Continued) -that was 'irrelevant'. I mean don't understand what exactly was irrelevant. You know a writer writes from a perspective too, don't you often get lost in daydreams or thoughts and concoct irrelevant stories or remember irrelevant thoughts that by no means can ever help you in any way? So it's kind of nice to sometimes read about those irrelevant things. (once again idk how to explain) (like it made me almost cry when I read about that child's sock (lotm 1) which was irrelevant to the on going plot?

    If you had read LOTM 1 then you would know that those dragging paragraphs are the scattered clues and foreshadowing that's subtle but (sadly) quite easily missed. I mean every writer has their writing style but I prefer the meticulous writing of Cuttlefish. Why? Because the world feels alive. The world rather than just being an abstract thought or a vague image that is commonly depicted in various LN and books feels like it's a breathing and alive entity in the Cuttlefish's novels. Rather than being centered around just the protagonist and his typical troupe, we here have a world that's actually real like idk how to explain it, but you know it's true that sometimes there are irrelevant bits that are not 'centered' towards the 'ongoing' plot but on a long run (magically) they become relevant. Yes sometimes they might not be relevant or sometimes they might just be narratives, but that just means that our (lovely) Cuttlefish spent so much time thinking about so many things that-

This sequel will be another MASTERPIECE. The world building is already done in book 1 and what's left in book 2 is go deeper in details. As everyone knows or might guess “Circle of Inevitability” is a Outer Diety. Cuttlefish also mentioned that Book 2's MC might be influenced or transferred to this world. Either way it's worth the hype. This book is written in a way that it can be read separately without even reading Book 1 so the readers that haven't read LOTM, can read this without second thoughts. This book's pace is slow as usual in Cuttlefish works.
