I Became a Prison Officer of the First-Class Prisoners

My Thoughts on I Became a Prison Officer of the First-Class Prisoners

First Impressions

Okay, "I Became a Prison Officer of the First-Class Prisoners" is definitely a wild ride right from the start. The premise alone – a prison officer dealing with all sorts of fantastical, half-human, half-beast inmates – grabbed my attention. It’s a unique blend of fantasy, drama, and even a bit of romance that promises a lot of excitement. But does it deliver? Let's dive in.

What Works Well

The world-building, while a bit chaotic, is undeniably creative. I love the idea of a prison complex divided into distinct zones, each housing different types of prisoners with unique characteristics. The descriptions of buildings A, B, C, D, and E are vivid and imaginative, creating a sense of scale and wonder. The author clearly put a lot of thought into the details of each location, making the prison feel like a character in itself. The "hide-and-seek" tension created by the prison setting is also compelling, adding a layer of intrigue to the narrative. The unique blend of magic, divinity, and demi-humans offers a fresh and intriguing take on the fantasy genre.

Areas of Concern

While the creativity is a strong point, I can see where some readers might find the story a bit confusing. At times, the plot feels rushed, and the explanations are a little lacking. The sudden romantic interests in the MC, while potentially exciting, can feel forced if not handled with care. I also find myself questioning the MC's decision-making process at times, which can be a bit jarring. I feel like the world is fascinating, but the story stumbles a bit in execution.

Final Verdict

Overall, "I Became a Prison Officer of the First-Class Prisoners" is a mixed bag. It has a lot of potential with its unique setting, diverse characters, and intriguing premise. However, it suffers from some pacing issues and a lack of clear explanations, which can make the story feel disjointed at times. If you're willing to overlook these flaws and embrace the chaotic fun, you might find yourself enjoying this strange and exciting web novel. However, if you prefer a more structured and well-explained narrative, this might not be the book for you. I'm giving it a tentative recommendation with the caveat that it requires a bit of patience and a willingness to go with the flow.
