Zenith Academy 1: A LitRPG/Cultivation Adventure Paperback – May 2, 2023

The MC and supporting cast is rather predictable and boring. The dialogue between the characters is weak and childish, with constant affirmations of everyone's feelings... Just feels fake and pretentious. The book doesn't really offer any surprises but has a well-rounded story in the unique world that if you enjoy the genre it's not really a bad book, but it's definitely not a great book. I recommend reading it if you have nothing else but I don't know if it'll interest you to read more than the first book... It just wasn't that engaging.

The reduction of font size change from page 340 to 341 absolutely annoys me to no end. I'm reading on my galaxy s20+ and it makes a huge difference in the experience because the sentences don't flow as well line by line while enlarged by one point, it has a massive gap between the right edge of the screen and the end of a line, and its uncomfortable to read with the one point reduction (I feel like I'm straining to read it and i have 20/20 visual acuity). Other than that, I absolutely love the book and am excited to read the second. I just pray to god the font issue isn't in the second book as well. To highlight this issue, Mr. Lange, I am currently on page 342 and felt strongly enough about it to write this review mid-journey through this excellent book. Don't let minor errors keep you from greatness, my friend!

Love this book, already bought parts 2 and 3. The audio book is great too, the narrators are some of the best I have listened to.

Cassius Lange presents us an intriguing tale that provides us with an entertaining adventure filled with action. His characters are well developed and bring depth to this work

I really enjoyed this cultivation novel it was a lot of fun and to read and had a lot of exciting adventures and to intrigue as well as an intrepid hero trying to navigate the Waters of racism. I like the way the characters interact with each other each had their own distinct personalities and was interesting learning more about them as time went along. Had some good stats and that made sense to me and I enjoyed seeing how they progressed. Also the story had some good romance in it. The women that are in it were all strong characters some with weaknesses that they had to overcome and I like the way that the romance was different for each girl some was a little quick but it made sense and it had logical progression and the intimacy was interesting especially the double cultivation. Anyway I digress I really enjoyed reading this story and hope to read the second one soon.

Overall a good book. The premise has been done before but that's not an issue as it doesn't feel stagnant.However, the MC needs to learn to chill."I'm going to keep my head down and just learn and grow" and not even two sentences later "Nope, I'm going to start a fight with people who know more, and have a ton more resources and are LITERALLY WILLING TO KILL ME" and then rinse and repeat.Really hope he grows out of that because that's a dumb MC and I hate those with a passion

I had to come across this author due to this specific block being on Audible as available for pre-order. Specifically the narrator's for this book are ones that I'm very familiar with and quite enjoy their work. I was reminded of that and noticed that this author has another series called Mana born that is already out. The first book being available as both a book and audio while the second one is currently only available in e-book for. After reading those two I found that I enjoyed this author's work so much that even though the audiobook for this book is only a few weeks away I decided that I couldn't wait. With that said I very much enjoyed this book and am extremely interested in seeing what happens with the story. For the record anybody reading this review I recommend both of the aforementioned series.

I am so enjoying this series. The characters are most intriguing and seem to get along very well. Our hero just may have helped himself greatly!

sehr gutes erstes Buch der Serieexceptionally good first book of this series.

Great series. Not just a quicky. Well detailed and descriptive. Well rounded characters despite being described as standard harem characters. Very interesting weapon and skill set used by the MC

Surprisingly solid for a harem series. Girls have some actual personality and the story is decent enough. Scenes last a good amount without letting it drag on and on.

I liked this book. The characters are good. The writing is good. However, you get a but carried away with the stats. I know it's the genre but even so just get on with the story. Still I enjoyed the story very much thanks fir a good read.

I found the characters to be more real than in other books of this genre. The different mysteries and subplots kept me interested. I still dislike being interrupted by statistics because they break up the flow of the story.
