Cosma Empire

My Thoughts on Cosma Empire

Okay, let's dive into "Cosma Empire." This one's a bit of a mixed bag, and honestly, I can see why the rating is where it is. It's definitely not your typical web novel, which is both a blessing and a curse.

First Impressions

From what I've gathered, the initial setup is pretty unique. We're talking about a farmer's son who starts from the absolute bottom, trying to make an honest living. The story quickly veers away from the usual cultivation tropes and throws us into a world of gangs, conspiracies, and political maneuvering. It seems like the main character's journey is less about personal power and more about navigating a complex web of underworld dealings and eventually, the political arena.

What Works Well

The world-building seems to be a major strength. The blend of sci-fi, fantasy, and martial arts elements is intriguing. The concept of a world divided between a technologically advanced "West" and a cultivation-focused "East," both powered by qi, is quite compelling. The idea that the MC uses knowledge from Earth to get ahead in business and politics is a clever twist. I appreciate that the story focuses more on strategy, business, and political intrigue rather than constant fighting. The MC's reliance on subordinates for combat also sets it apart from many other novels in the genre.

Final Verdict

"Cosma Empire" sounds like a novel with a lot of potential. The world-building and unique blend of genres are definitely appealing. However, the ongoing status and the hiatus at chapter 1339 is a bit concerning. Overall, I'd say "Cosma Empire" is worth checking out if you're looking for something different from the usual web novel fare. Just be prepared for a story that might not be completed anytime soon.
