Beyond? by Andur

This novel would be enjoyable if it used 3rd person pov.
Or at least 1st person pov without too much change pov

the concept is nice but the plot and narration is below average. the author gets sidetracked easily and likes to needlessly elaborate on certain things in the form of internal monologues. the dialogue is also subpar: the author often has trouble conveying the character's emotions properly and either overdoes it or misses the intended meaning entirely. apart from all that, the narration itself is below average simply due to the clumsy, basic and stiff execution.

overall id give it a 2/5, but i gave up on it halfway so ill assume it gets better and give it the benefit of the doubt: 2.5/5

2.5/5 mehh novel,and final (last 10 chp) real bullshit

Kinda meh novel, apart from premise everything else is kinda subpar. The story is too stale, they are no major conflicts, hero never gets a proper chalange and every crisis is portrayed too lightly to create any tension. It doesn't help that the main mistery is unraveled in a very laid back way, like it's no big deal(which is actually kinda true, since it doesn't affect the story progression). Another big problem lies in mc himself, his powers are kinda vary in weird ways,

Though it is kinda short, and has interesting enough storytelling and hella good world building to keep you entertained throughout the story, and it is better in that regard than most novels on this site. World building is actually the strongest forte of this novel, author makes sure that we are learning something new about the world or mc compliances(though it is mostly abandoned in the latter part of the story, where characters either already have been given enough detail or just being overlooked for the sake of establishing bigger picture) pretty much every chapter, and it looks organic enough so you don't question autheticity or feasability of the given info

I honestly liked this and had a feeling of satisfaction finishing it although short it's a decent read worth a try a relatively easy 3.5/5 for me

Old mage is slowly dying on a frozen world that was slowly losing the rest of its warmth and has one last chance to escape by hitchhiking on a summoning spell and is reborn as a baby in a new world.

Heartwarming slice of life mostly initially with a slow-burning mystery plot around his previous world. He came fully equipped with magic that seems to be of a higher level so not much stands in his way.
