[Closed] Review swaps for a first person fantasy novel.

#1
I would like to do some review swaps. Right now I don't have much time to read other's stories, so I would like to limit things to three or four swaps for now. If you are interested post a reply.

Warnings:
First time posting a novel.
Non native english speaker, but I put some effort in my grammar, so I hope it is at least readable.
First person narrative.
The novel follows two different characters.
It is slow paced, I think.
I'm mostly a fantasy reader, I have also read some terror and sci-fi. That is to say, I would do best reviewing those kinds of stories.
I have yet to write a review.

Personally I'm mostly interested in some critique, as a first time writer I would like to know my weak points and the weak points of my story. As for the lenght of the reviews, I will leave it to each of you. My preference would be around 10K words or so because that is where most readers stop reading my novel, but I'm open to more lenghty ones.

Thank you in advance.

Wow, that's really fast, thank you. I took a look at your novel's main page, it seems like an interesting war story with multiple POVs. I hope you don't mind if I don't do the review until next week, I won't have much time this weekend, so I will write it around monday or tuesday.

Absolutely not mate, take as long as you need too. I can gladly wait for a month for a review if need be.

Oh, is this urban fantasy or does it only start in the modern world? It's been a long time since I read an urban fantasy. Whatever the case I'm down for a review swap. If we are talking about 10K for my story that would be five chapters, from N1 to N3. If nothing goes wrong I will write your review next week.

I like the premise of your history, on the other side there are no reviews yet, being the first one feels a bit intimidating. Well, when I get to yours I should, hopefully, have gotten some good experience from the previous ones. Just tell me how long do you want the review swap to be and I will get to it next week, probably on the weekend.

Reverse isekai sounds interesting. That said, I already got another three reviews to do, so don't expect me to write it soon, I don't like to rush things and my pace is... slow. If you don't mind it I will get to your novel review after next week, most probably before the end of the month, just tell me the lenght of the swap.

Chapter 3 marks 10k words. I'll get back to you with a review soon, thanks!

Any length you think is fine. I just mainly want feedback on my novels. I'll get to yours immediately too
