Synopsis

The world ended.

Zombies and monsters rose. Cities crumbled.



And Merek? He woke up in the apocalypse with a job that lets him create armor for lingering souls—spirits without bodies, desperate for purpose.



Turns out, the dead don’t rest easy. Some are angry. Some vengeful. Others? Just lost. When Merek binds them into steel warframes, they don’t just fight... they evolve.



Now, he leads a legion of the undead—ghosts in armor, bound to him by oath and fate.

Faction leaders call him mad. Warlords want him dead. And God? If He’s watching, He’s not talking.



Merek was supposed to die with everyone else.

Instead, he got a support type job no one’s heard of... and a shot at rewriting his pathetic Earth-life.



In this world, only the fittest survive.

And Merek? He’s got undeads in steel at his side.

Author’s Review: [My Job? Weaving Armour For Undead In Apocalypse] Just like the title suggests, this story follows a man who transmigrates from Earth into an alternate apocalyptic world—where only those with jobs stand a chance at survival. Will you like the protagonist? Yes. Why? Because he’s a necromancer who commands an army of undead forged from steel. From four-armed armored monstrosities to souls sealed into steel weaved Dullahans weighing tons, anything is possible as long as he has souls or wraiths to work with. In short—he’s insanely powerful. But what makes Merek stand out is his personality. He’s not a hero, not a villain—just someone trying to survive in a brutal world filled with zombies and mutant beasts. You could call him an anti-hero, and I think that suits him well. Romance? Yes. It’s a single female lead—not a harem. Whether it's a slow burn or not, I’ll let you be the judge. But I promise it’ll be worth following. If you have any questions about the book, feel free to ask. Thank you for liking this review, and God bless!

I'm the first one to comment on this but I have to hand it to this author, 6 chapters so far and this is a unique take on necromancy.

This novel is fantastic. Now, it is a post-apocalypse novel and, as such, has some sprinkles of the tropes and cringes typical of the genre, but DD is handling the story much better than most, in my opinion. The necromancy system is the most unique and interesting take on the type of magic I have seen in fiction. I will definitely give this story a huge recommendation.

Sorry for my English, but I love reading so much that even a translator doesn't bother me. One of the advantages of this work is definitely the choice of words used to convey the scene to the reader. The picture is vivid and eloquent. Thanks to certain words, this work stands out from the rest. Now for the negative. The title put me off, but the picture attracted me, so I opened this work. The title lacks imagination or creativity. Now for the protagonist. He is ordinary, he has no bright sides or charisma (the author tries to express his uniqueness with words, but it is a futile endeavour). What's more, he is an immigrant from another world and... it's pointless. It's pointless. It's silly. Because if the original had received Tkach's power, it wouldn't have changed anything, it would even have been better. After all, the protagonist did not ‘inherit’ motivation, but would have experienced the moment of loss himself. There is no objective reason for the immigrant. The plot is typical and full of clichés. So, let's count: 1) There is a stupid character who tries to force the hero to save the situation with threats. 2) There is a cold, aloof heroine whom everyone adores, but she is interested in the hero for no objective reason. 3) There is a group of survivors who do not immediately accept the protagonist because he came with a girl. 4) There is an idiot who loves the girl and is ready to betray the protagonist (the groundwork for this is being laid, but it is such a cliché archetype). 5) There is a rich idiot, the son of a deputy who seized power. 6) It turns out that the girl also has a very, very influential father. The characters are all cardboard cutouts; despite the poetic, even dramatic description, they are all flat. There is no depth, just simple archetypes for clichéd scenes. I can also mention the writing style. It's both a plus and a minus. Everything is too dramatic, poetic and theatrical. Sometimes you read it and want to roll your eyes from cringe. There's a fight, and the author describes how the barrel of the revolver spit out a bullet like a dragon (or something like that). Now about the protagonist's power. He makes armour for souls, but is it used? With such settings, the spirits should become separate characters, but this is not the case; they silently carry out all orders like simple minions. That is, the protagonist's minions are absolutely no different from the minions summoned by a simple necromancer. Hell, even the protagonist's profession from Earth is used very poorly! What difference does it make that he is an artist if he sculpts armour like a sculptor! In short, as a first attempt, it's incredible, the locations are described fantastically, but it doesn't matter how vivid the picture is if the characters are flat, it remains a typical apocalypse, just a little better described. Even the better description becomes a minus, because it's not the kind of style that can be called light and swallowed in hundreds of chapters in a day.
