Reviews of The Mage of Primordial Chaos by Cyclxne - Webnovel

It's been more than 5 months since I first started writing this series, so I thought I would come back to leave another review. For new readers of this series, please read this review FIRST, before picking up the novel. I will be listing some of the pros and cons of this novel here, and since everyone has different tastes, this novel is obviously not going to be for the entire population of Webnovel. Please don't complain about things later on in the story if I already clearly listed them here. So, without any further ado, I will start with the cons first, then talk about the good points later. CONS: - Harem. This is based on personal preference, so I won't say too much. Some people may find harem a pro of this novel, others may consider it a con. - Boring early chapters. The early chapters (roughly chapters 1-10) of this novel are quite boring since characters are just getting introduced and our MC doesn't have any powers at all. After he awakens his powers though, that's when the fun truly starts. - Cliches. Like any other story, there are some cliches within this one as well. For example, OP MC beats the guys who think he is weak, and he gets all the cute girls. HOWEVER, I've tried my best to keep cliches to a minimal, especially after the early chapters. Please focus on the plot development of the story instead of the slight cliches here and there. Also, keep in mind - cliches are cliches for a reason. - Chinese factors. In my opinion, most of my readers shouldn't be too concerned about the Chinese names (in Pingyin, not actual Chinese characters) proverbs, and traditions incorporated within this story, but nevertheless, I thought I would include this in the cons of this novel. If you have a problem with Chinese names or culture, I won't judge. Keep in mind everything is still written in pronunciable English, so no need to worry about not being able to understand what I'm writing. - Weak MC at first. In the beginning, the MC is powerless and has a weak will as well. He is constantly thinking of just giving up, and therefore is dragged/pushed around by others a lot in the beginning. He will slowly develop as he gains his power though - it is a weak-to-strong novel, after all. PROS: - World-building. This novel has a unique system, whether it's the 21 elements or casting process. It's like a mixture of Eastern Cultivation Fantasy and Western Magic. I could give more examples, but I suggest just reading the novel itself instead. Also, the world it is set in is more or less similar to the world we know. Thus, it should be easy for you to visualize scenary and such. - Writing Quality. There are little to no grammar, spelling, and/or capitalization mistakes within this novel. While English isn't my first language, I do use a grammar checker tool when I write, so there shouldn't be any major problems. - Harem. As said earlier, this can be a con for some people; it depends on preference, really. - Plot development. While the early chapters are slightly boring since MC doesn't have any powers (yet), after around Chapter 11 or so the story begins getting steadily better from there. Please read until then to decide whether ot not this story is worth it to keep reading. - Characters. Each of my main characters unique, and have different personalities. Some even experience slight personality changes throughout the story, as a major event happens (Volume 3, cough). Character development is also steadily happening, especially for the MC. - Mysterious. While this story is written in first-person (MC's perspective most of the time), not everything is directly laid bare (MC's thoughts, etc). There are both mysterious/unknown aspects regarding MC's abilities and the world itself that are hinted at but won't be revealed until the time is right. If you like imagining and guessing at what those mysteries might be, this novel's - or rather, my writing style may suit you. - Stability of Updates. Currently releasing 1 chapter daily, despite being busy with school. Wow, I wrote a lot. Sorry to all of you who're just trying to begin reading. I just thought it was necessary to list the pros and cons of the novel here so that readers know some basic aspects of what they will be reading. I hope I wasn't just doing something extra. Anyway, even if there are some points in here you dislike, I'd suggest still giving the story a try. Who knows? Perhaps the good will outweigh the bad. And if it does, well - make sure to smash that vote button with a sledgehammer and add this novel to your collection. That's all from me for now. - Cyclxne

Some other novels by me to try out: - Endzone: Simulated Apocalypse (if you like apocalypse style, survival game, system novels that give a fresh twist to things with a unique protagonist not found anywhere else c:) - The Legendary Ghost Hunter (if you like urban fantasy, paranormal, action, gory, and revenge-type tragedy stories with a calculating, smart, and antihero MC) - Ascension: Online (if you like VRMMORPGs and yanderes :D) All great reads, so go ahead and give them a shot if you have some spare time on your hands. ;)

started reading, I won't comment on style/quality of the writing or content. however the chapters are up to 628 and it just...stops. no ending no info, only a comment from the author that they might get motivated to write again if their other novel does well. yet the novel is marked as completed. I wish I looked sooner to see that it was never finished.

The plot and background of the story are very interesting, but the story is too slow paced while not being as engaging to do justice to the pace of the story. Additionally, the age of the main characters is too young for them to properly engage in the harem storyline properly. The author is starting good but isn't the smartest narrator while going into the mind game aspect of the story either. He has a good room for growth, but, at best, his overall writing skills are average. I look forward to his growth.

Is the completed? Because I check yhe chapters and I did not see any Final chapters or epilogue. Sorry for my English. I want to read because I read the prologue and it is good

author is clearly deleting bad reviews from his novel

Hmmm. So only 3 negative reviews, all appearing at the same time period the author went inactive. I smell an author deleting all the negative reviews.

can someone please tell me how to read the reboot I can't find it anywhere

I couldn’t even get past the 8th chapter. Everything so far was just the MC degrading himself and getting bullied by others. I know the author said that the early chapters were boring but they were actually atrocious.

pretty much cliche and one of better thing is mc still having brain even being beta You can read this but little forced As writing style is tad bit boring focusing on side elements too much But quite a nice try

great story ,love the plot twist and every bit of how the story is written. the only thing I don't like is it takes too long to get more chapters. I want to read more and more but all of a sudden I'm hanging off a cliff .

I’m really enjoying this book, but the switching of perspectives is annoying. The author does a great job when it’s from the perspective of the MC but the others are lackluster. The story would be so much better if he just stuck with the MC’s perspective full time.

This is legit the first review I have written for the hundreds of webnovels I have read. This novel is the best there are. The switches between the first person perspective between different characters gives readers a clear contrast between other novels and this one.

Great story and interesting characters though I kinda wish the main character would have a bit more backbone sometimes and be less outright hostile other's

The novel is very good[img=recommend][img=recommend]. But the discord link doesn't work, can the Author resend it or something? I'd like to join

slow start, starts picking up by chapter 16. the foreshadowing in the early chapters tends to be smack you in the face style. can someone who read up to the latest chapters spoil me. I really want to know who is in his harem after the forsaken sister arc. I have a slight feeling that some of the charecters will drop off or will they stay.

До сих пор все было очень хорошо. Мне это очень нравится, персонажи на высшем уровне, и романтика в нем тоже неплохая. Продолжайте хорошую работу

really cant handle the beginning of the novel. it would be a miracle if the author writing capabilities suddenly improves in the next chapters

Noice

There is no hate, only joy For you are beloved by the goddess Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul Pride is lost Wings stripped away, the end is nigh

My friend, do you fly away now? To a world that abhors you and I? All that awaits you is a somber morrow No matter where the winds may blow My friend, your desire Is the bringer of life, the gift of the goddess Even if the morrow is barren of promises Nothing shall forestall my return

I honestly like everything about it except one thing That is In sted of Mc name they use I every time. and they didn't even describe the mc appearance. that the only thing that annoyed me

This is well written. No grammatical errors and has a lot of potentials. I'm giving this five stars because I haven't gotten far in this book but I'm in love with it.

I love the story line, keep up the good job. Though work more on your translation and check minor typos.

I honestly love this series, everything about it is amazing. It is currently my favorite novel on this site, and I can’t wait to see where this novel goes towards the future.

The story itself is great, the idea behind the story isn't unique but it's still entertaining. if you didn't read many novels you could find this novel great, but if you have some experience you will notice a few problems. The author use 1st point of view in his story which is quite uncommon and worthy of praise but this is also the main problem of the story. There were few time in which a sentence written in 3rd pov (which doesn't supposed to appear in a 1st pov story) and suddenly transition to 1st pov. another thing to note is that the author has great ideas and nice mentality but it's hard to bring them into the story without sounding cringey or stupid coming from the mc himself. All in all, the story is great but the writing quality bring it down a notch and denying it's true potential, if you don't mind such stuff then it a great read.

Really good story. It’s not necessarily the best story i have ever read but it is quite a fun read nonethless. I like harems so that is not a con for me but it might be if you dislike them. My one big problem is just that i wish the MC would actually start a relationship with one of them. I am only on like chapter 80 though so hopefully he starts a relationship soon. The MC power is really cool and many parts of this story have gotten me really hyped Up. Overall a good story so far and i reccomend it.
