A great book with a focus on the plots and actions of gods. They are all written exceptionally and make decisions that fit with their domains and ideals.

The world building is fantastic. You learn why the world is in it's current state and how it is changing. The gods' power system is perfect and prevents any one god from being stupidly powerful. They all have strengths and weaknesses that fit their concepts.

Give the book a shot, you will not regret it. Definitely one of the best stories on the site.

The only issue is minor and it is that every 2 or so chapters there is a small grammatical mistake. Nothing that causes confusion though.

Amazing, and awesome.

Characters are very human, the story is extremely enjoyable to read. Watching the characters interact and actually talk and behave as real people do, is incredible.  

One of, if not the, best story I've read here, on RR, or Kindle. 

Enjoy slowly. Very, very easy to binge the whole thing.

A really solid story, probably one of the better ones on this site. It's very character driven, in terms of the plot moves forward because that's how the character would act, instead of the plot just suddenly happening. If you've read enough stories around here, you'll understand what I mean by that.

Something is always pushing the story forward, and there's build-up moments into the climaxes. It also doesn't feel slow like a lot of kingdom building stories do.

The few issues it has, are relatively minor in the grand scheme of things. From what I gather, the author literally writes a chapter every day and then posts it. So you're getting constant updates, the problem though is sometimes there's some typos. It sounds bad, but it really isn't. Maybe once or twice a chapter, there's a word missing, or something is misspelled. The worst of it is around the 40-130 range I think. But it in no way, makes reading the work hard.

The story also states that it's about Arascus, however I felt like over half the chapters were from the pov of only Kassandora. Which, isn't bad because I like her, but there's simply just too much of her I feel.

So far the story hasn't really done anything to show that Arascus is evil as well. They've hinted at some "bad things" but both sides have done "bad things". From a reader perspective, Arascus is evil and bad, simply because we're told he's evil and bad from other people. However, when you see his interactions with others, he just seems like a really cool guy.

Many of the characters are gods of varying age, some thousands and thousands of years old, others only a few centuries. The problem I think they have, is that they all act about the same emotional maturity. In terms of, a god that has lived for thousands of years, is easily manipulated with a few simple words, then at one point, they even know they're being manipulated and just accept it. Because "well I have nothing better to do I guess."

I will also mention, there's the harem tag on this story. So far, there's been like, one alluded to s*x scene. And then literally nothing mentioning anyone being in relationship even close to that.

It sounds like I have a lot of issues with the work, but I genuinely don't. I wouldn't have read over 700k words if I didn't like what I was reading. The story really finds it stride past chapter 70, I feel like that's when it truly starts. Give it a read if you enjoy any kind of military, magic, gods, and/or large scale war/intrigue stories.
