The Boy Who Swore Revenge On The World Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on The Boy Who Swore Revenge On The World
"The Boy Who Swore Revenge On The World" promised a dark fantasy ride, and while it delivered on some fronts, my experience was a mixed bag. The premise, a betrayed villager seeking vengeance against... well, everything, definitely piqued my interest. But the execution left me with some reservations.
First Impressions
The initial chapters hooked me. Seeing the protagonist's descent into darkness after unimaginable torture and betrayal was compelling. I was ready for an edgy, morally gray tale. The medieval setting and the introduction of dark magic added to the appeal. However, that initial excitement waned as the story progressed.
What Works Well
The novel shines when it embraces its dark themes. The antihero protagonist, fueled by justifiable rage (at least initially), is a refreshing change from typical goody-two-shoes leads. I appreciated the world-building, particularly the exploration of the false goddess and the complex relationships between different races and kingdoms. The strategic elements of kingdom-building and army formation were also engaging. The side characters, such as Liscia and Chronos, add depth to the story, even if their development sometimes feels rushed.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the inconsistent character motivations and the jarring POV shifts. The protagonist's actions often felt illogical, attacking random villages instead of focusing on those who wronged him. This made his "revenge on the world" seem less like a calculated plan and more like senseless violence. The frequent POV changes, especially to minor characters, disrupted the flow and made it difficult to connect with the story. The pacing also felt rushed at times, with significant events happening between chapters, leaving me feeling disconnected.

Final Verdict
"The Boy Who Swore Revenge On The World" has potential, but it needs refinement. The dark fantasy elements and the antihero protagonist are appealing, but the inconsistent character motivations, jarring POV shifts, and rushed pacing detract from the overall experience. If you're a fan of edgy novels and don't mind overlooking some flaws, this might be worth a read. However, if you prefer well-developed characters and a coherent plot, you might want to proceed with caution. Overall, I'd give it a 3 out of 5.
