1. A great story and I will continue the series. But Aaron Oster will need to upgrade his writing.
For example:
-At the first town, Nate has to pay a very high price for only 2 units of water because water is so scarce in that area. But in the next sentence he goes to take a full bath at an Inn for cheap? That’s nonsensical.
-If a human enemy is killed, why can’t they just put the body and loot directly into their storage ring like they can do with literally anything else in the world? They have to leave it on the ground and hope nobody loots it before they can come back later? Nonsense.
-Why didn’t Nate make Freya a set of lightening sloth boots too? He only had a set made for himself even though he had the extra material and could have easily helped her at the same time. She was literally right there with him.
-Reduce the MULTIPLE times the author over uses the phrase “in other words…”. Communicate directly and clearly the first time.
-Worst of all, our MC is incapable of convincing or influencing the leaders of the human city to see the best path to save the human race within the time span of a single conversation so he immediately goes to plan B: murder people and destroy the city! That makes no sense. The best way to keep humans safe is to literally murder them? Aaron Oster, you nearly killed your own epic story with that one and now you have a MAJOR morality problem to correct in the next book. Very Machiavellian and a disappointing story choice.
2. Justin Thomas James. Tiana Camacho and Jeff Hays were excellent storytellers! Thank you
