OKry channel 2.0??????

Time to take this book onto my camping trip

[midnight depot]

Currently reading "Lord of The Mysteries"

Hello I am perfectly new to this server, as I have never been active here

[odd blaze]

Quite possibly

[odd blaze]

Welcome. Let us know your thoughts on the book after if you feel up to it

[midnight depot]

Sure will

[junior egret]

YEAHHH BABY!!!

an excellent novel

but it’s lengthy so be aware

[midnight depot]

Mmmhmm

[midnight depot]

Also the official tbate server is the reason why I hopped on reading that

[bitter thicket]

Big W

[midnight depot]

Have completed the volume 1 CLown of LOTM n man that was a ride

truly great

Now in volume 2....

[junior egret]

the ending man…

ridiculous, exaggerated, happy smile

[midnight depot]

Leonard's rage.....it spoke more about his character than all his dubious actions earlier in the volume

Zangwill now got two bloodthirsty wolfs on his tail

[junior egret]

Leonard is such a great character, youll get to know him more in the future

[midnight depot]

Looking forward to it

[junior egret]

the whole thing with the child was so amazing

and our favourite sleepless…

oh and how you like the world building

[midnight depot]

Even in the comments for the chapter.....people literally said Leonard gives more of the vibe of the MC than Klein n yet Klein's the MC

[junior egret]

because its one of the best

same with power system 22 paths of the divine

[midnight depot]

Very much.....I am loving it

[midnight depot]

yup.....rn at chap 244

[junior egret]

I think its good that Klein is the way he is

hes great

mc of the second book is more with spice and character

[midnight depot]

Yeah.......Klein's also great n I like him as the MC......I think Leonard as an MC will only work for a trilogy n nothing more

[midnight depot]

Oh....i'll be looking forward to that when i get to it

[junior egret]

Many don’t really liked the change but it was necessary

youll get to it

and youll get to know and love Klein

[midnight depot]

Yes.....even rn.....he just got the charm he named "language of foulness" n that damn idiot's risking it like he got several spare lives xD

[junior egret]

I mean…

[midnight depot]

Talking about where I am

[junior egret]

244 chap is just the beginning of the second part yeah?

[midnight depot]

Yeah I think it's around 10-15% mark.......?

[junior egret]

second part is the longest I think

the slowest too

but I loved it

[midnight depot]

I'll let you know when I have read it too

I didn't check what the entire gif was 😂😂😂....but damn...worth it

[odd blaze]

[midnight depot]

So.....just 2-3 weeks ago I completed vol 4 of LOTM and man that was good. The last arc with all the 'acting' and plans. Brilliant.

Currently I am in vol 5.

Remembered this thread existed so came in to check. How about others? Anyone read something worth their time recently??

[midnight depot]

Ooh ....I haven't been here for a long long time.

Well.....I did complete LOTM like by the mid of December I believe....much earlier I think. And now I am reading Shadow Slave.

What about others? Anybody?

[junior egret]

oh wow, your thoughts on it?

[midnight depot]

Let's see. Characters are well written. Some started well and then not returned back to...

World lore is worth it's intricacies

And the events of the time in the book, they have you hooked but only one major event feels like it was a bit mishandled, but that events aftermath wasn't mishandled so I guess very good in relation to Events of the book

[junior egret]

Those characters that were actually important in one way or another always came back for even a moment I think

[midnight depot]

That's about Lotm.
Not Shadow Slave

[junior egret]

hmm, can you say which event exactly? I think I know which one but wanna make sure, and spoiler tag it

[midnight depot]

Yeah, but some characters are in there that even when came back to again just were there for that. Like a mirror, and not actually there. Yk which ones I am talking about || Maric, Suah, etc. ||

[midnight depot]

|| The War and Lovia's non-betrayal ||
That could have been done better

[junior egret]

Tbh Id think you’ll mention ||The final ritual to become The Fool. Even becoming a scholar of yore is ridiculous, but the ritual for The Fool is just insane||

[ruby canopy]

I read Shadow Slave up to around chapter 1300s

and I read LotM too, of course

tbh though, I've mostly forgotten lotm details that those spoiler-tagged stuff have mostly faded in my memory.
Been meaning to do a reread before I start reading Circle of Inevitability, but I kinda wanna watch the anime instead. So maybe I'll wait for LotM anime to come out and then read CoI

[ruby canopy]

shadow slave was if Solo Leveling was written better, and used shadows properly

[junior egret]

but remember that anime for now will be only about volume 1

and this shadow slave sounds nice then

[ruby canopy]

oh right... so it's gonna be much longer if I wait for it all to finish

lmao

[junior egret]

theoretically you can see end of volume 1 in the trailers. but it's 240 chapters, so either the anime is gonna be long, or it's just there to tease the novel readers lmao

[ruby canopy]

I hope they don't cram so much story into so few episodes, so it's fine if they end a season on volume 1

[midnight depot]

Yeah, I agree with that, and more. It's like Shadow Slave actually goes into the territory of shadows. SL is just a mc farming for last battle, so it's understandable to be small. Shadow Slave is entirely different, it focuses on the human part too

I have just completed today the vol 3, and now in vol 4. In Shadow Slave

[midnight depot]

I do think they will end up cramming it but then again the episodes themselves could be longer than 30 minutes or so
