Table of Contents
The Demon's Gate. is less a novel than a bedtime story. It's a bunch of ideas strung up in a row, rather than a plot in a developed world.
What's good: the author knows how to write sentences, and is fascinated by fantasy.
What needs work: Worldbuilding, plot, pacing, depth, characters, being interesting. The story here wasn't planned. You don't have a chance to explore any place or character before they're abandoned for the next idea. We get suggestions of what could be, but no exploration of what is. It's a hodgepodge of non-believable characters following social and cultivation rules that make no sense, and you skim from one empty setting to another every chapter or two.
I love the genre, but this story is shallow and uninteresting.
