Outsider #6
Redoubt
Having successfully defended Terana Province from the monster horde and his family from the malevolence of Ollivan Harling, Dare turns his attention to his upcoming trip to Bastion's capitol to petition for knighthood.
He and his loved ones have put a lot of hard work and planning into preparing his bid to join the Knights of the Northern Wall, protectors of the region. But even sponsored by Baroness Marona Arral, he faces an uphill battle attempting to join the nobility. In theory knighthood is available to all who meet the requirements, but in practice his fate is in the hands of the Lord Judges.
Including Ollivan's uncle Valiant Harling, Duke of Bastion, and his cronies, who have no reason to love Dare.
Still, Dare's determined to do all he can to succeed. Knighthood would elevate the women he loves to his noble status once they become his wives, and allow their children to be born into the nobility. An important step to providing a better future for his family.
Be Redoubt is part of a harem series and features numerous, explicit romantic scenes involving multiple partners. It is intended for adults.
Author's After vocal feedback from passionate and dedicated readers, I've reworked the story element in question. The way it played out never sat right with me as being true to many of the characters, and I should've trusted my gut. The ultimate resolution and the way the characters get there has been changed to be more in line with their nature and what they'd do, as well as hopefully being a more enjoyable reading experience. Thank you all for your support as I learn and grow as an author.

Book Has Open Relationship with Sharing with Other Men
This book brought in a sucker punch out of left field so to speak when it had the MC involved with a love interest who then has her lover come and stay in the MC’s house. That would be bad enough seeing someone that lives and is intimate with the MC bringing another man into his home, but it gets worse. She literally lives with and is supposedly pregnant by the MC yet she brings another lover into HIS house. Does the MC do anything? Nope he sits back and watches her jump all over this other man and they blatantly rub it in his face too. Then she literally goes and spends the entire night having sex with this other man and then tries to come get in the bed with the MC and his other women like nothing happened. So, you might think the MC would end their relationship because they’re obviously incompatible as she’s not willing to commit to him and wants to keep sleeping with any man she wants whenever she wants? Nope! But what the readers actually get is that she goes from living with him and being the mother of his child to POSSIBLY the mother of his child, because she lied about knowing it was his, so he decides to claim it’s his anyway and this woman is now his “friend with benefits” that he will share with other men. I had to double check and make sure I didn’t miss a content warning that this series was changing from a Harem Lit story to some sort of open relationship thing. The true icing on this terrible cake is that the lover literally thanks the MC for his “hospitality” as well as letting HIS lover live there and for claiming the baby as his own. I mean come on! The author puts the MC in a situation where at best he looks like an idiot, yet more accurately like a cuckold who has no spine or self respect. This woman has no intention of ever committing to the MC but he’s so desperate for any iota of her affection he’s willing to share her with other men, as many men as she wants. This cat girl love interest knows it hurts the MC but doesn’t seem to really care all that much because she “loves him in her own way” but not in any way that doesn’t involve throwing herself at men right in front of the MC, having sex with them, and joining her lover in blatantly disrespecting and essentially cuckolding the main character in his own home. Anyone who does something even remotely close to that can’t actually care about the person they’ve done it to, and isn’t worth the MC wasting his time on. The author says that the cat girl has fundamentally different ideas about relationships yet instead of having his MC stay away or even acknowledge their irreconcilable differences and moving on, we get the spineless train wreck of a book that is this one. I had really enjoyed the series up until this point, but the MC has shown himself to be a spineless person with no self respect that it’s almost impossible to root for. I mean he’d rather share her with other men and get her whenever she’s not sleeping with other men instead of taking the time he’d waste on her and spending it on his other women that actually love him and are committed to him. I really wish I’d stopped at book 5 at this point, because after the way the author and MC handled his pregnant love interest bringing another love into his home and flaunting it then rubbing his face in it really ruined the rest of the series for me.

Dropped this series after the MC is made a cuck by linia. How despicable can you be? To turn on the man you know got you pregnant and then said to her old lover in front of the MC that she knowingly said whatever she could to get safe Harbor for her people. She had no qualms turning on the man who saved her friends and family for this cheesy old noble who did nothing to help her people out. Who kicked her by the wayside and you have the MC still being okay with things. This just turned the series off for me and I’m done with it. Also to have his other women get upset at him for being mad at her. Simply disgusting and disrespectful. Six books in a series I’ve given up time for to read this kind of disgusting stuff. It’s pure trash. Done with the series and the author

A lot of turn offs
Gotta agree with the other reviewers on the direction the author has taken this book. Already had some misgivings during other points in the series, but stayed for the story. This book kinda put a damper on it all for me though with how Linia turned out and some other encounters with the maids. Skipped over too much of this book with boring or just uninteresting scenes for me to want to continue the series. The author seems decently skilled just not to my taste.

What is Happening
This series started off so good, but is seemingly turning into a piss and cuck fetish. I am trying to figure out where the author thought taking this turn was a good idea because it was doing so good before this turn. The MC is all of a sudden becoming a cuck that wants to be pissed on and treated like an animal. I couldnt finish this and doubt I will try the next, but author for once listen to your readers because even the 5 star reviews are saying they dont like those parts.

Do you enjoy surprise cuckoldry six books in? Then this is the book and series for you!
In this book an old flame of one of the girls shows up. He and his companions ignore the MC, humiliate him, and laugh when he claims the child she is carrying is his. Then she happily jumps into the guys arms, making out with him, before he carries her off for a night of fun.
All of this happens in front of the MC, who is too cowardly to do anything about it afraid he might lose the girl. When he later speaks up his harem gangs up on him taking her side.

fight for Linia
The ending of Dare relationship with Linia was too simple and quick. Yes the relationship with other man was in his face but other man “OWNER” of Linia and her little sister contract with the irregular. For Linia to end that relationship there would be price to pay no matter how nice that person is. I am hoping that the author revisits Dare and Linia relationship later in series. I still think they have a chance.

Favorite new series
Have to say that I have become a huge fan of this author. His books come out regularly and are each well written with very little errors. The story is just as compelling now as it was in book 1. I can easily say that I look forward to reading each new book in this series.

The quality just keeps going
We see our friends having to travel to Redoubt, officially this time, as Dare postulate for knighthood, the Bastion capital is as full of dangers and plots as we delve into the machinations of the nobility. New allies are made as well as cementing previous relationships. Starting on book 7 now!

High quality writing
Unfortunately this book very cleverly and correctly portrayed many of the vices that plague humanity - I say unfortunately because its a shame we seem to be unable to overcome them. The author did an excellent job of spinning them in this tale.

Solid read
Nice to see the author crested a new arc in the story instead of besting every last ounce of the last arc.
