The best among the series so far, review to come.

This is a convoluted mess.
The first book set up a very interesting idea. The second changed settings and wasted it. The third became hyper focused on a boring event to facilitate character development. This never had a chance. It inherited the mess from the last two and is clunky and boring as a result. This is just very poor planning as a series.

Just a slog. These books can’t lock in on a characters mental age and vacillate between highly intelligent insightful much older adults and high school. Exposition is way too high and overly verbose. Stunted weird YA like relationships. Feels like an off brand Saturday morning cartoon. I try to skim past things to parts I enjoy but it’s tough.

This is the last chance I'm giving this series. If the protag continues to think about his girlfriend and friends 24/7, instead of doing what he did in book one, I am done. That is real Young Adult crap trope writing.
I'm a few chapters in. How that last book ended on a cliffhanger should have cued me in that the author might have split a book in half to publish it. This continues from the previous book, so I doubt there will be major changes in the character's interactions (ten chapters in and it's the same shit as before).
I don't think I will read anything else from the author. I'm going to give this book some more rope, but I already see the author (already has) messed up a good plot and storyline because he wanted to shoehorn in YA romance, and has the protagonist focus on everyone else except himself.
I skimmed this book. The author burned his bridge with me after he gave me book two and three. I'm not giving him the benefit of the doubt any longer. I am fed up of the protag's girlfriend's name being mentioned all the time, in every chapter.
Is this her book or what? It seems the protag finally started to use his wishes to help solve issues (like book one), but it took a while to happen, and it's too late. I am not picking up anything else by the author.
If I wanted teen romance, I would have picked that up.
1.5/5 Stars

Love the series despite the slow pacing and not utilizing wishes correctly
While I do love this series, the glacial pace and the main character not utilizing his primary wish ability correctly is a bit of a downer.
Love the overall plot and the characters and the ideas.
Main character needs to use his wishes more effectively and the pace is an extremely slow…each book should have him raising at least a rank or two.
Wishes alone should be speeding him along like crazy.
The single use attacks are ok, but why doesn’t he simply get an attack as a payment.
Like person comes up to him and wishes for a skill and then pays with a full permanent attack power - both are permanent buffs
One is a skill the other is an attack skill…
He could do so much more with the wishes.
I would’ve expected him to be at least rank E already but he still stuck at rank G.
That being said I plan on reading all of the books in this series and I am interested in seeing what happens

I'm still enjoying it a lot. The MC relationship has been getting a bit tedious, it was cute at first but the constant displays and declarations of affection are becoming a bit much. Dude still hasn't met her mom after like two books, I just remembered that. Anyway, maybe some kind of complication between them would add more intrigue, or at least a slight shift in focus away.
It's honestly not that big of a deal though, all the actual important stuff was done well.

I’ve only made it half way through this book and felt compelled to go ahead and write the review. The lovesick, codependent, over the top “my boyfriend” and “my girlfriend” stuff brings this book down to 1 star….. Shame on the author for comparing himself to PoA and HWFWM, there aint the constant fawning in either of them series….. this is supposed to be a cultivation series…… not a young adult romantasy…… I’ll update the review IF i finish the book…… IF it warrants it.

Really great book
Love the superhero litRPG spin of this story. We are first introduced to Solomon's family and it turns out they are not all evil. We learn more about superpower growth and different ways to gain power.

Worth reading
As usual, a good read from malcolm Trent with some twists I never saw coming. Good work as usual and well worth the time.
