Description
One of the wealthiest and largest lands on the continent—Trastasa. This land was ruled by the lord and omnipotent god, Amon, and his partner, Nine. But unfortunately for the very human Nine, Amon was not a benevolent god. “My most precious thing.” “Do not be damaged, do not be marred. You must remain forever beautiful.” “I would gladly soak you in blood and lick you clean.” The grand temple that seemed like a perfect paradise on earth, Yet because of Amon’s cruelty and indifference—as well as the many Leshas who were like his concubines— Nine found himself burning with frustration every day. One day, a new Lesha with rare pink hair and eyes arrived, And this Lesha, Lan Gwen, captured Amon’s attention at first sight—something that had never happened before. Consumed with jealousy, Nine secretly went to find him… However, Lan Gwen turned out to be far stranger than Nine had imagined. “To have received Sha Amon’s attention at the banquet was not my intention, Sha.” “What…?” “But may I ask why you came to my chambers, Sha Nine? If I may be so bold, could it be that you wished to see this servant?” Tormented all this time by Amon’s coldness, Nine began to realise that he was strangely affected by the gentle way Lan Gwen treated him. “For your sake, thousands or tens of thousands of humans are nothing. You must trample over such things and live, my lovely one.” “I have no interest in lofty beings like the god of Trastasa. What I am interested in is the one bound to Sha Amon.” A beautiful grand temple built atop the desert. A god both tender and cruel, and a beautiful youth who appeared one day out of nowhere. The peaceful routine and heart of Nine, which had seemed so stable, begin to split in two…

My Thoughts on The Snake That Swallowed the Pomegranate
"The Snake That Swallowed the Pomegranate" is a novel that really took me for a ride. Diving into this world of gods, dragons, and complex relationships was an experience, to say the least. It’s definitely the kind of story that demands your full attention and isn't afraid to play with your emotions.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the stark contrast people mentioned between this and the author's other work, "I Can See Your Stats." It seemed like a deliberate choice to explore a darker side of a similar theme, and I was curious to see how it would play out. The tags – abusive characters, amnesia, and love triangles – definitely set the stage for a potentially angsty read.
What Works Well
The relationships are, without a doubt, the strongest aspect of the novel. The central love triangle between Nyne, Gwen, and Amon is incredibly compelling. I found myself genuinely invested in each character's happiness, even when their desires clashed. The author does a fantastic job of making you understand everyone's motivations, even when they make questionable choices. The world-building, despite being rooted in fantasy, felt surprisingly realistic, with magic seamlessly integrated into the narrative. The plot unravels in a way that keeps you hooked, revealing deeper layers as you progress. The writing itself is masterful, creating a truly immersive experience.
