Hi author here, hoping to shed some light for any lurkers who are thinking about giving this fiction a shot. I will start off with a warning, this fiction contains mature content, profanity, gore, sexual content and traumatising content, and thus should not be viewed if any of this triggers you or by immature audiences. Now a little about this fiction, it is set in a dystopian modern day world currently in the midst of heavy strife and civil unrest. The start of this fiction marks the beginning of a wave of violent demonstrations against governments around the world by the populace who have had enough of their misconduct and mistreatment. The main character, Callum, is an orphan boy with no immediate knowledge of who he is, and wence he came from, he lived in an orphanage until boyhood when he met Bryan and eventually Arielle and they are currently living together as a trio of sibling like friends in ward 108, which could in one word be described as a 'slum'. Following his awakening, he gains newfound strength that he initially believes he can use to better the situation and living conditions of he and his friends. Much of the details of his awakening and what it entails are still unknown, no spoilers but everything will make sense by the end, if you still don't understand by then, let me know and I will personally explain it to you (no cap lol). There is a lot of depth to this story, especially the complex world that it is set in, and as an amateur writer, it will take me some time to flesh it out, heck you would not even be able to guess what this story is actually about until at least chapter 15 so please bare with me and give it the time I believe it deserves, because I'm making sure to take my time to write it to the best of my ability. One last thing, read in between the lines.

This novel was serious adventure! First-person narration was one of the best out there with little to no mistake. As I have read, it was showing not just telling to the readers. Plot was likable for me and it was amazing. Good job and good luck, this thing earned its place on my library. [img=recommend]

Umm, how should I start... this novel is 5 stars for me. although there are not many chaps yet you can clearly feel the potential author have. what I like about the story the most is the character design and the World background. it was so done perfectly and very realistically. the author has also the skill advantage of narrations. she/he is very good with her words. but I still suggest making some changes in the synopsis. by making it a little bit more interesting you can attract readers attention to your super story. with little no mistakes, the book is amazing and worth giving a try. best of luck 👍

Where do I start this may be one of the best web novels I’ve ever read despite being only six chapters long the quality of these chapters is incredible and the fact that the author writes one chapter everyday!! I had to login just to review I never do this but this is just too good and so much potential here

It’s very cool, the first person pov threw me off at first but I soon got into it! Good job author! The grammar is also very good and there’s a lot of effort that’s been put into this which can be seen just by reading the first chapter. I have this novel in collection because I think it’s concept is cool and I see potential in it. A very well done novel that has only just begun, I hope to see what happens next!

The technical ability of the author is outstanding. Vivid and clear descriptions that weren't too lengthy allowed for a fresh flow through the chapters without losing momentum. For me personally, the subject matter is not so much to my tastes - but it's pretty hard to deny the creative talent regardless of said tastes. If you're reading this review, this novel is undoubtedly worth a try.

I love the writing style and that it is realistic. Each detail was described perfectly. There little to no grammar and it was visible that the author was getting better and better at editing. Although, there are some small parts that author kept repeating and small details that are really unnecessary and it starts to make the chapter sound really mundane. Perhaps try to use more exciting words or "colors" to your world. Either way, this book deserves a big ol' 5 stars!

The story in one word is just A.M.A.Z.I.N.G !!!! The storyline goes in a flow and there are always cliffhanger in the end which will make you attached to your seats.

Amazing Story, I really want to know what happened next, I'm not a very fan of reading novels with the first perspective of writing but it's nice and smooth, if you wanna read give it a try, I'm sure you will like it.

Creative Plot!! Writing Quality: It has very few grammatical errors, which weren't problematic at all. Stability : Good until now. Story Development : Well Paced Character Design: It was sufficient to give an overview of the characters and personality. Background Description : It was done perfectly. Though at some places, lengthy explanation hindered the flow, but overall I loved how the author portrayed the environment. Keep Going!!

The synopsis doesn't do the book any favours at all. It's a very descriptive book with characters with dark or hidden backstories. The only con for me is the lack of jokes, I love comedy but what did I expect, it's dark fiction. I've got to come back to this, the descriptions are incredible, exactly what I'm aspiring for. It's a mature book, a new idea, I hopes it picks off from here

A perfect novel with everything being perfectly written. Thought would read one chapter but content captivated me to finish all chapters at once. The dialogs are well written and are interesting. The characters are distinguishable from each other. Could just only suggest on synopsis to describe more as it attract readers and help them to get a small idea of what the novel is about. Other than that, I must say author you have potential to be on top. Good luck with the writing!! And yeah, couldn't stop myself from giving you a 5 star rating.

After having read all the chapters, I can tell the Author spent a lot of time behind the character design and the stability of updates are also not bad either. There were a couple mistakes with grammar but they don't disrupt the flow of the read. The concept behind the characters and book is fresh and I'm waiting to see how the plot unfolds; it's definitely a unique story compared to the books that are found here on Webnovel. Great Job Author and do add some trendy tropes in there like a school arc or smt. Would definitely make it more interesting!
