First off I must say that the concept of the story hooked me in since I'm interested in viking culture and there isn't another novel that follows this concept that I know of. So I went into this hoping for a great novel, however the early execution of the story and character development was sub par at best which ended with me dropping the novel. My main gripes being that the author doesn't expand on why the MC has the following points or his reaction to his sudden reincarnation in the beginning of the story: 1) Knowledge of Latin at a proficient level(Latin being dead language) of which I'm certain that a 'supposed' military member of the Mexican army would not know. 2) Expert knowledge on medical practises and research (he mentions that he will 'explain' many diseases and their 'processes' to a random woman proclaiming herself to be a 'doctor' 3) His reaction to his daughter's death after being reincarnated was unrealistic to say the least. How he just shrugs off her death and soldiers on to having a full on dialogue in latin with a random woman is just baffling to me and removes a sense of realism that ought to be there. 4) Author doesn't show much of why the MC has any of the knowledge I stated above. He is only shown to have ties with the mexican army, we don't know his profession or why he was travelling to Athens with his daughter in the first place. Overall just a disappointing opening to the story and the MC in general. Many points are left unexplained and the reader is just meant to go with the flow. The MC has a weird motivation to want to continue living to and old age and conquer territory since it relates to him blaming God and religion for the deaths of his wife and daughter. The author never wrote about the MC being religious before he died as that would make more sense behind this motivation. The grammer is around average for this site but has much to be desired, an editor or spell checking would work wonders for the story. Hopefully the author can take this criticism and work on it towards future chapters and books.
