one of the thing i liked about this story was that the main character could do evil things occassionally. That is no longer the case. Oren has started needing more and more moralistic justification for every action, from not harming civilians to being unable to fulfil a pact with nihilator. The final straw for the negative review came and tried to raise qualms about imprisoning an obstacle that opposed them. Even though its still a good story and well written its now just the same dime-a-dozen moral-hero type of story. the worst part is it looks like the original text didnt have this problem and it had some evil parts like nihilator assaulting a town, but some idiot of an editor took it out. Sucks that it got rewarded with 5 stars but i guess i could write my own
