Law of Predation

Recently, I have also been writing Western fantasy. The biggest feeling I had after reading this book is that the world is amazing. The author's writing style is excellent enough, and the description has a good grasp of the atmosphere, but this is not the most important thing for a novel. A long time ago, the first time I read a Western fantasy book was Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and then I continued to read more famous works such as Ice and Fire. Looking at domestic Western fantasy novels, the biggest regret is that they do not have their own unique and grand world like Western fantasy novels. Steam, magic energy, this is a punk-style Western magical world with exquisite design, and it is obvious that the author has a certain understanding of Western history and culture. Although these settings are breakthroughs and are fresh and new things that everyone has never seen before, after blending them with the Western background, there is no sense of dissonance. Many Western fantasy novels from Qidian inevitably give people a sense of violation, especially books like Behemoth Empire, which make people feel that the author does not understand the West at all. It is okay if he does not understand the West. If people who understand Western culture read it, they will have a deep sense of violation. Not to mention anything else, just the setting and creativity of this world are worth watching. I give it full marks. ——Big Demon

Good works should not be buried. I have collected them and will continue to pay attention to them.

First let me talk about the advantages. The writing is well-structured and the suspense is well arranged. The opening chapter is indeed extraordinary, creating a description of pig's feet predatory in a snowstorm. The description at the end of the first chapter is unexpected, which is the highlight. Although the plot in the following chapters is good, I feel that the halo of pig's feet is strong, and the structure of your world is not clear. If you want to push the layout and slowly reveal the structure of the world, then there will be praise and criticism. If you can arrange the settings cleverly, it can indeed attract the eye, but if the structure is not good, it will be inexplicable, but there is indeed novelty. Another point is that the character structure is not full and a bit single. To be honest, Lucius is a bit idealized and seems a bit depressed. Maybe the plot just started and not that much was shown. Okay, I still want to complain about the pig's feet halo. . . I don't know if you think this setting is a good article. If so, I won't complain about it. Come on, I like my second brother Virginia. I'll be back with a long review in a few days.

The book is very special, but some of the introductions are not very clear. What is the situation in the world where the protagonist lives?? At what stage does the protagonist's truth level of strength rank??? Later, I saw the gold level mentioned. It can be speculated that the truth level is a higher level of strength, but what other levels are there in between? The book says that the bronze level requires ten years of hard training, but the protagonist reaches the truth level at the age of 14, and is treated only as a viscount. So what is the truth level in this world? Or does this world not value force so highly? When the protagonist recalls his past life, he mentions that the previous predator reached the top and other creatures could no longer provide him with any growth. Is it actually because of the predator's own disdain, or is it because other creatures can no longer provide basic energy and are waiting for death??? If it is the latter, it means that the protagonist will have to wait for death until he finally reaches the top level. And the setting that requires predation for three months is also a big shortcoming, because it means that energy cannot be obtained from food.
