Metaworld Chronicles

A great twist on common D&D spells that U know by heart. Is the first thing that grabbed me to the story, after that I stayed for everything else. 

The Grammar is very well done, quirks in names and nouns when the point of view is that character are used, which I was interesting. Very nice descriptive writing style. Everything is easily understandable and laid out well, making it a treat to read.

The story is great but has some hit or miss moments, missed opportunity, here and there. While this does give it a more realistic feel to it than just a story written to please the reader. While the story is kinda hit and miss, the characters are very well done and believable. Every character is fleshed out and has an obvious identity. For instance, while Yue and Alesia are extremely similar almost identical character types they are obviously different people. This remains to be the same for every main character and even temporary side character or villain. 

This is currently my favorite story here on Royal Road and I enjoy reading every single chapter. Which is currently being released on a regular basis, by the way. If you enjoy a good story, well-done characters, and a solid fantasy world. give it a read.

Absolutely gripping. Though the first few chapters left me a little confused and wondering where this was going, it didn't take long to hold on tight and enjoy the ride. And when the [SPOILER] happened I was thrown for a giant loop, only compounded with where the story is now and all the history involving her [SPOILER]. Though light on the LitRPG elements, the DnD references make it all the better for an old tabletopper like myself.

Definitely a must-read for any fans of Alt-Earth or Urban Fantasy.

An outstanding story, well worth favorite status. A bit week on the plot line but seriously well worth the time and effort to read. The MC is a bit lacking but looks to be developing right nicely. Def looking forward to reading future installments. To be honest wish it was on amazon in a whole form so I could just read it all at once.

An interesting discovery that should soon be trending.

The styling is very good, the writing is understandable and you really enjoy reading it.
The grammar is almost perfect, a typo here and there in the last chapter, a few odd words in a sentence but the author fixes this errors so it's a plus.
The pacing is ok, no confusion arises from reading and advances at an ok paces, thankfully there are no 400 pages chapter just for the lore and world building.

Now the story is a bit bland, yeah the mc soul was sent to another plane/world/realm very similar to earth however there are few places that really cause any inconveniances to the mc (plot says that has access to the body owner memories however the "personality" in charge is the one from earth and there are plenty similitudes in both) and they are all the same kind of problem, "i don't know about X", answered by the "do you live under a rock? well it's like this". This is a good method for the author to skip the world building and show important things only when they matter however it feels like it could be used for more.
There are few confrontations (except last few chapters, and no cliffhangers (again except chapter 24), so there is little pressure in the MC and the reader.
This is by no means bad, just simply, that it's a bit more bland  because MC life is more quiet and calm even when the story had said that there could be trouble nothing happened (mc was object of jelousy on the school but there were no incidents, mother is a controlling bitch however impacted very little in the plot of the novel which, arguably, there where few reasons for her to do so).
There are several foreshadows that were not used yet so that could change, however the foreshadows mostly looked like they expanded the backstory instead of changing the world.

The characters are well written and logical, however they are a bit stereotypical (the childhood friend/rival, the best friend with almost opposite personality, the calm, quiet  and reclusive friend). The father is a big question mark, the brother is just explained as being a younger brother with particular show of personality. The rest feels like they are specifically there to be useful to the mc and not because they need/want her for something (none of the seniors pointed out why they stayed with juniors, the other teams are there but are not named, etc)

All in all, a very good novel that (I hope) continues and grows to the potential that it has. It's an almost relaxed reading and very interesting. I'm also wondering how will the author balance the magical power of the humans, seeing as a person with less than a year of experience is blowing a lot of stuff up, how is the older generation of geniuses doing in terms of power (there are no comparison, the teacher killed only one little guy by selecting what to target and the tryed to blow a mythical class snake and failed).

TL;DR: Great novel, good base and future to explore, an easy and "soft" read. Please keep going author-san.

I  first reviewed this when there were 9 chapters out, now there are many more and while I think one or two of the chapters are a bit confusing, overall this story is of exceptionally high quality.

The language used is noticably better that most of the things I've read on this site and I hope that it continues to be updated.

If you like an urban setting for your fantasy, with an interesting magic system, you should definitely give it a go. I would recommend everyone to at least try it, to see if it fits your tastes or not.

Bookmarked and Favourited.

Honestly liked this story. I got caught up in the trials and tribulations of our MC, Gwen, as she tried to adapt to a world like and unlike her old one. 

And like Emily back over in Schooled in Magic, our Gwen, has to get a grasp of the magic that is around her and deal with the social and political landscapes that is corralling her. 

So if you did like Emily in Schooled in Magic, you'll really get a good read out of this one too. 

Overall, I'd really like to someday own the first Ebook of this story. If it ever gets to that point. 

btw, to the Author, I KNOW it's reall you Chris!! Hiding behind an "aussie" facade as a writer on RRL. hahaha! Nice one mate!

Just kidding. 

Gwen the MC is thrown into a magical society with its own rules and obstacles.
Mages have thereby a dominant postion while Non Mages have only limited influence.

The world building creates many options for future content but focuses so far only on mages. The visible main plot line has grown a lot more exciting with the first interlude. The introduction of side characters is solid.

The editing lacks in parts but i am sure the author will fix the minor mistakes.


Genres:
LitRPG - the magic System is loosely based on RPG magic Systems but there are no pop-ups and the "magic rules" are not strict in areas like mana consumption.
Male Lead -  No male lead so far.

Reincarnation - the reincarnation plays only a minor role but allows the MC a more mature personality with more willpower.

 Loving it so far. Honest criticism, the chapter on her family situation felt a little long winded and confusing (too much tell, too little show), but everything else has been great. Hopefully poor Gwen can catch a break soon :) 

Will definitely follow this.

 The Warnings should be updated. It goes deep into Sexual Assault and somewhat into Human Trafficing.

I just read Chapter 44.

As a magic system it uses DnD spells with some modifications.

I think the story centers more around the 2 class system they live in. The MC didn't need to be reincarnated, she could easily be a normal inhabitant of that world, without changing the story too much.

There are some errors, but they don't block the reading flow. (so 4,5 Stars)
The style is solid but missing a distinct feel to it. The monsters aren't described good enought or at all. The fight scenes are a little hectic. But anyway enjoyable and the focus lies not on them.

The characters are behaving sometimes irrational and stupid(Chapter ~40-44). (Which real persons do, put not fictional people^^) And it looks sometimes like it they only do to further the plot.

So overall enjoy this story immensely. it is light-hearted with some serious elements mixed in throughout the story. However, I feel that there are some superfluous chapters and paragraphs throughout the story.

There has been mention of things such as the shadow council as well as other nefarious organizations. With what I assume to be the intent of foreshadowing, sadly these efforts seem wasted this early into the story as the author is still fleshing out his world. The biggest problem I have with is foreshadowing is that it could have been better-spent world building or building the meta evil of the story, they as far as I can tell seem to be a specific antagonist which are not very well explained or explicitly mentioned in follow up chapters.

The MC is good, not great though, her inner turmoil and actions that are affected are not addressed as much as I would have thought with her being the outcome of a merger of two timelines. Beyond that, she is an enjoyable and funny character for me to read.

Lastly the grammar and overall level of writing in this piece of fiction are superb. While there are some questionable sentences and paragraphs they are for all intents and purposes usually grammatically correct which is a very nice departure from a lot of fictions posted on RL.

TLDR: Some pointless foreshadowing with a lack of world-building, MC has a problem that hasn't been addressed adequately but otherwise an enjoyable MC, Is written well.

Definitely, recommend 9/10
