I didn't know what I expected from romantasy, so it's my fault. But the whole military rider complex didn't sell well with me, especially given the author military background. I think for romance and fantasy vibe, the book is good, and the main romantic relationship is kinda silly but not toxic. The world building is very primitive and gives “hard to be hard” without explanation, and like the only believable thing was main character physical struggles. In conclusion, this is my end with the Emperyan world, and I would not read more.
Через формат коротких розповідей на пару сторінок книга читається легко та швидко, і перші 75% майже непов'язані між собою (окрім “історія” та “Україна”) що не дає занудгювати.
Тема війни не замовчується, вона більше про осмислення ворога та нас самих.
А потім різкий воєнний щоденник, який описує ємоції усіх українців із 24022022. Ненависть, радість, сум, ненависть, ненависть, ненависть. І серед усього цього, головна і невпинна тема - надія. Не надія “а якось буде”, а “їбаште котики”.
Extremely fun and light novel, in fact, it was so entertaining that I gulped it whole in 2 days! Sometimes it can be really silly, but it's more due to the genre of comedy than bad writing. And it's very refreshing to see so cosy and normal relationships in danmei, lol. Hope the next part will be the same level of fun and we will see more romance~~~
So far very good, I like how they introduce new characters and give depth to the “old” ones. Obviously, it's just the beginning so there is not so much action but I think it is important to read it in order to understand and appreciate the character growth/change. Looking forward to see how the story progress!
