《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'The Last Philosopher' by NickfEast
Advertisement
The Last Philosopher, written by NickfEast, is a fantasy book with… 105 chapters. I don't even know how I managed to read it in two days. Time is an illusion, everything is a blur.
It's a fantasy book that follows people on the planet Huom, or, more specifically, on the continent Sojurut.
The two main characters are Herschel I. Pensador, who is the last philosopher, and Lyeasrakardsul, a high-ranking sorcerer.
Firstly, Pensador is Spanish for 'thinker' and I can always appreciate well-thought out naming. Well done, my bro. Points for that.
Going back to the story. Herschel escapes from Zig-Zig prison and we follow him on his journey to the east. Lyeasrakardsul, on the other hand, is mainly seen dealing with his sorcerer problems.
Lyeasrakardsul may have problems, but I sure don't see any when it comes to worldbuilding. Everything looks like there was really put some thinking into it, and that's always a pro.
But, here's the thing: we're 100+ chapters in and we still don't see how the stories of Herschel and Lyeasrakardsul intertwine. Aside from being set in the same universe, it looks like they are completely different stories. Perhaps it's a thing for future chapters, but damn, dude, you're taking a long time.
The characters are all great and unique, I don't have anything to fault them on right now.
GPS? Well, the spelling and vocabulary is top notch. I've barely seen misspelled words.
However, some sentences sound awkward and clunky. I've also seen quite a few misplaced/missing commas.
It might be a good idea to really do some editing, not because it's bad like this, but because it would improve the overall experience. You fix the tiny issues, you've got gold on your hands.
If you've got a lot of time on your hands and enjoy fantasy, go read this.
Rating: 8.5!

Celestial Teahouse System [Slice Of Life LitRPG]
“I guess this is the end of my lifespan? How pathetic.” An infamous Immortal Emperor from Black Heaven Realm was at the end of his lifespan as he shut his old and wrinkled eyelids, awaiting his impending death with a hint of regret. However, when he was on his last breath– the serenity was disrupted by a simple-looking pebble that started glowing intensely out of nowhere as it entered his dantian and he lost consciousness. After what seemed like forever, he finally woke up and to his amazement– he discovered that his body had recovered to the state of his once youthful self with his cultivation only regressing by a little, while ending up in a foreign world filled with modern technology– Earth. He realized that a mysterious robotic voice had suddenly established its presence in his mind unknowingly, issuing him missions and rewards that would help and guide him in a certain direction. Enjoying his new life with a carefree attitude in a new world, running a teahouse with the help of the Celestial Teahouse System– Li Qu will slowly unravel the mysteries behind the pebble and the reason for his transmigration. Was he the only one to do so? Or was there a deeper meaning behind all of this? Will be releasing chapters daily until it gets knocked off the Rising Star list. From then on, it'll be Monday - Friday. Important Note: It's written in a style of a 'Chinese-translated-to-English' type of story. I get the confusion in the earlier chapters, however– NO harem. It's mostly a turn-off-your-brain chill type of story. Author's Note: As this is the first story that I've ever written, there will be occasional errors and as such, please forgive me in advance.
