Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint (novel), Vol. 3

มุมมองนักอ่านพระเจ้า เล่ม (Novel) (23 Volumes) #3

by singNsong, Eric Yang (Narrator)

Dokja has been able to step one step ahead in the apocalypse thanks to his knowledge of TWSA, but what if he were to lose that advantage? In the next scenario, he must contend with others like himself—readers! The so-called “Oracles” pose a greater threat than anything Dokja has faced so far, and the most dangerous of all is their leader, a shadowy mastermind pulling the strings behind the scenes, who seems to know too much to be an ordinary reader…

Dojka really said "I refuse to be the Ugly King" so just broke the throne to be in a Kingless World

สนุกกกก หนังสือพึ่งส่งมาถึงวันนี้ อ่านจบแล้ว สนุก วางไม่ลง ลุ้นมากว่าใครอยู่ใครตาย ถึงแม้พระเอกในนิยายไม่เด่น แต่นักอ่าน(หน้าตาไม่หล่อ 555) จะเด่นมากกว่าก็ตามเถอะ อยากเล่มต่อไปแล้ว

Survival continues for Kim Dokja and party. Taking over different stations to survive the 4th scenario for The King’s Path. Dokja discovers he isn’t the only Reader of Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse but he is the only one to have completed it. He continues to grow his party using tricks and smarts including impersonating the protagonist Joonghyuk Yoo. What could go wrong?

This volume was better than previous volume.

[Nattapan · Rating 3 out of 5]

I know that it is all about strategies to survive in this imaginative world. However, I still feel extremely sad when I have to accept the fact that violence is an important part of human nature.

4.5⭐ rounded up because I love this series.

I'm impatient for the next book now. This series is like if someone read dungeon crawler Carl and then it happened in real life and they were like "well I know how it ends and what Carl should've done so I'll try to do that" and then it changes the story. I think it's estimated to be 10 English volumes and the manwa is ahead of the novel right now.

[Rebecca · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.5 rounded up for being both a general cut above most stories of this ilk and so very, very readable.

You may want to brush up on your Three Kingdoms (Korean) period history before reading, though.

I'm so excited for July, I want Volume 4 NOW 😭😭😭 KDJ MY GOAT

[gelboy · Rating 5 out of 5]

My favourite arc till now 🙂‍↕️

[anemone · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kim Dokja really is The Character of all times

this series really needs to be adapted into an anime, I want to see it have a one piece level adaptation, I just know the author had to have made an insane world map to keep track of all the characters and places and factions

despite the ever growing number of characters and twist, this book is astonishingly easy to follow. that could possibly be bc I read it in one sitting and didn't have an interval to forgot anyone lol

[Ploy Inthira · Rating 4 out of 5]

เล่มนี้ก็ยังน่าตื่นเต้นเหมือนเดิม ชอบประเด็นเหล่านักพยากรณ์มาก ลุ้นสุดๆ พูดถึงประเด็นนักอ่านและนักเขียนได้ดี มีประเด็นการก็อปนิยายด้วย อยากรู้เลยว่าคนที่ต้องสงสัยว่าก็อปนิยายคนนั้น จริงๆแล้วเป็นใครกันแน่ ส่วนประเด็นราชานี่ที่จริงก็ดีนะ เหมือนได้ความรู้ประวัติศาสตร์เกาหลีไปด้วย อย่างตอนที่ดกจาพูดกับกลุ่มดาวทั้งหลายในช่วงท้ายๆก็ดีมาก แต่ตอนอ่านรู้สึกต้องตั้งสติพอสมควร เพราะตัวละครค่อนข้างเยอะ ทั้งกลุ่มดาวและอวตาร อ่านไปแล้วก็เมาหัวนิดหน่อย แต่ดกจาคือไฟท์มากจริงๆกับการอยากเห็นจุดจบของนิยาย(?)เรื่องนี้ จะไม่ยอมให้พระเอกมันตายแล้วได้ย้อนกลับหรอกนะ 55555555555 แล้วอยากรู้ด้วยว่าถ้าเรื่องดำเนินไปถึงตอนจบแล้วดกจาจะเป็นยังไง อย่างดกจานี่จะถูกจัดเป็นกลุ่มเดียวกับผู้ถอนตัวไหม ถ้าเรื่องดำเนินไปจนถึงตอนสุดท้าย เค้าจะลงเอยแบบผู้ถอนตัวคนอื่นๆหรือเปล่า

[Gabrielle ✿]

English translation of the novel adapted from the web serial (episodes 10–15).

[Qualle]

read the whole thing as the webnovel online, so i cant say much to the single volume or the translation.. but ORV as a whole is a great story, packing great story telling, emotions and action!
(tho changing the word 'Dokkaebi' in the physical release is kinda dumb..)

[Supon Jirasoonthornchai · Rating 5 out of 5]

สนุกขึ้นเรื่อยๆ เลยครับ 4.65

[S · Rating 5 out of 5]

Biased as hell bc I’m already a fan but this is one of my favorite early arcs so I had a great time. It’s hard to cut up web novels into physical books bc it’s not as standard in where a book should begin or end - ORV suffers from that too in the physical books; the beginning of this book just picks right up from the end of the last but if you can’t remember what happened then im sure it can be a struggle. The end of this book, however, had a perfect stop point.

Instead of just creating random characters, the choice to use figures readers would know (historical figures, mythical figures, etc), ORV educates its readers and increases the emotional investment. This strength shines greatly in this particular arc.

Some stories like this is boring bc the MC seems OP and what’s the point? But ORV does such a good job of making you feel like - yes dokja is OP but by his knowledge - but he can fail.

[Rae · Rating 5 out of 5]

I will continue to be obsessed with these books forever. I just think Kim Dokja is a perfect main character. I love him so much. Overall this book was quite fun. We moved along a good bit in the story now that we have our main Dokja crew and main Joonghyuk (or however you want to romanize his name) crew so that allowed us to push the story forward a bit more. I did love that we finally got Han Sooyung in this book! I've been waiting for her to show up (I say like I haven't at least read the original first volume before). Overall an exciting read. I can't wait to keep following Dokja on all of his adventures until the very end.

[Emrys · Rating 4 out of 5]

The mystery is so great. I am loving this story. Sadly I know that this is barely the start of the whole story. But I like the translation and its easy to follow. I am considering if I should see if there is any other translations out there, but I also know it will be harder to read.

I dont say this translation is the best there ever was but it is consistent and I imagine i would have a hard time learning another translators flow of writing.

Will keep this on the lookout. Just a warning for the rest of you that it will probably be more than 5 (or even 10) volumes for this story to finish.

[Dylan · Rating 4 out of 5]

I would act out too if a bunch of strangers doubted my being while altering a monumental life-or-death task, right after the guy I keep bickering with makes your drama everyone else’s problem. You’re so real for that, Dokja.

On a more serious note (spoilers from here on) this volume really starts to dive into the very interesting conversation of who/what is a part of the story. Not to mention, the title King of a Kingless World is filled with so much meaning, it makes me anticipate the upcoming scenarios with a sense of anticipation despite knowing what comes next.

[Evelyn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Is this the story you wanted to tell?

I love ORV and I remember the feeling of reading the last part of this novel in the webcomic - sooo good! I just feel like NOW we're really cooking! The capture the stations ft oracles part was just an okay scenario to me, but with, of course, some really interesting developments 👀 but what follows is really great! I'm really looking forward to the next book!

ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARCS KING OF KINGLESS WORLD IS HERE

blurry face kim dokja. funny as hell secretive plotter scoffing at the poor historical constellations and donating money just to show off. the action!!! the final scene is so good it gives me chills.

i think king of kingless world being kdj's first fable being a thesis of his character is so good. ah... this guy...

[Bradley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm really getting some great Dungeon Crawler Carl vibes off of this one. The art is still fantastic, but the unexpected humor goes really well with the truly dark themes. You know, like DCC. But unlike DCC, there's a pretty excellent balance of craftiness, gore, and forethought in this one.

Really shaping up to be something excellent.

[Hannah (Fully Booked Penguin) · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume brought the chaos as always, revealing a lot of interesting plot points. Having no grasp of Korean historical figures, I'm unsure if the scenario would have been even cooler knowing some of the real world inspiration for the constellations, but I had fun regardless.
It's fun following Dokja as he cares for his crew and plots for their survival, using his cunning Reader's knowledge.

[Ivy Aranea · Rating 4 out of 5]

(I didn't actually get an ARC; the bookstore just accidentally put copies out early. I don't know why it says Publishers Weekly.)

Anyway, Kim Dokja is a scheming schemer who schemes, and I really, really enjoy that. I just wish the volume was longer.

[Makiah · Rating 4 out of 5]

I had to put this down for a little bit because I wasn't in the mood. Plus, for some reason I wasn't vibing with it. Though, after the first episode, I was completely sucked in! And we got some big reveals this installment 🤭

4.25 ⭐

[Nad · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think it’s still quite early in the whole story that everything still feels lukewarm for me. It’s actually a very easy reading but it’s hard for me to stay and read the whole thing. However, Dokja is still a very interesting character nevertheless. I need to reach the main part of the story soon.

[57 hours later · Rating 3 out of 5]

taking a day off just to binge-read the 3rd volume? it feels illegal, but is so legal. also feels like a filler episode cuz there was little to no action involving my queens, Huiwon and Jihye, hopefully they get more attention in the volumes to come.

[Saige · Rating 5 out of 5]

An amazing book that lived up to its potential. It was interesting and Dokja is a relatable character for readers who loved a similar life to him before his book became a reality. An amazing story and I can’t wait for July 21 for book 4
