I'm sure Dante sees my name attached to a review for one of his books and starts cursing since my standard rating is just 3 stars and I think he's only managed to get a 4 star review from me once.
The truth is that I find his ideas interesting, and I have to admit after reading Dragon Breeder 1, that his MC here isn't as terrible as most of the MCs you find in harem self-fulfillment fantasy tales.
The problem is that while Mike the MC is better than most you find in the genre, the rest of the cast is extremely lacking in development. And when you combine that with a long and convoluted start that just never came together for me, I found that I had to fight through the story to finish it. Honestly, the big climatic fight from this story was something I skimmed as I was just no longer interested in what was happening.
Dante is a skilled writer, but he does skimp on character development and his story pacing tends to be more sleep-inducing than it should be. This tale just dragged early and the ending was very much lacking in emotional punch as I didn't know enough about the characters to care about them.
This is a fairly average Harem tale, which puts it deep into the mid 3 star range. I can recommend it to anyone who likes Dante's writing style, but I expect many reading this will find it slow and just lacking a good hook to get the reader immersed.
