Michael Taggart and 2 other people liked Brandon Carter's review of Unintended Cultivator: Volume Nine: "This was kind of a weird one for me. Most stories, the protagonist struggles against an antagonist or two, barely survives, but comes out stronger. That's not really what happened here. There was never a point where it seemed Sen would be defeated, no" Read more of this review »

Michael Taggart liked Thorsten's review of Unintended Cultivator: Volume Nine: "This is one of those rare times when I wish half-star ratings were available. Three stars feels too harsh given how much I enjoy this series as a whole, but four feels too generous for a book that compares so poorly with most of the others.

Quotes by Michael Taggart (?)

“Sprinting while naked is not an easy thing. I’ve seen streakers before, and while I’ve admired their desire for mischief, I’ve never thought of it as a painful undertaking. I was running for my life down the hall, and despite the motivation to maintain top speed, Captain Winky and his two first mates were voicing a loud, painful protest of their mistreatment”
