The Runic Alchemist

First of all, thank you to everyone who has given my story a chance. As a newbie writer, I honestly didn’t expect much, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the response from so many readers. I’m writing this as an introduction to my story, and as you might have noticed, it’s pretty fast-paced. Let me explain—I'm more of a reader than a writer. I grew tired of novels that drag things out for chapter after chapter. It’s a valid style of writing, and I understand it works for many people, but it’s just not my preference. In short, this is the kind of novel I would have loved to read myself. Sure, there may be mistakes, and sometimes I trust the reader's intelligence a bit too much by leaving certain things unsaid. But I enjoy writing it this way, and I hope you enjoy reading it too. :) This is a story set in a fantasy world where the standards of life are vastly different. Power is absolute. In such a world, there are certain people who hold different views on that reality. Right now, the story is focused on Damian, but keep in mind that the narrative will feature multiple points of view (POVs). There are several main characters whose perspectives we’ll experience throughout the story. Additionally, there will be one-off or occasional POVs from other characters who aren't the primary focus but are necessary for the narrative—such as Alex or Vidalia. If you're curious about which characters have leading roles, their details, along with artwork, are included in the characters section. It's a nuanced story with many eyebrow-raising topics and themes. In this world, there’s no clear right or wrong. Much of what happens falls into a morally grey area, and the characters' actions and intentions reflect that complexity. That’s just how I imagine a world where god-like power exists among common people would be. I welcome all kinds of feedback, so please feel free to share your thoughts on what’s working and what’s not. As I mentioned, I’m not a professional writer—just someone trying to put his daydreaming fantasies into simple words. Thank you for your support! :)

Quite the nice novel. Good grammar and good Story with somewhat likeable charakters. But... you got to hold on and dont just drop the story like many other did. Because it went a lot of effort into writing this Review . Ps: ( like atleast 30 seconds )

This story has better grammar in the author’s mind, however when he/she is typing it out they seem to accidentally omit some words that would make a sentence flow better and make the story easier to read.

it's decent because the tropes are ones I like but author has a tendency to write annoying side characters. this is fine because they're mostly teenagers or children and both of those groups have a tendancy to be annoying. MC is an mc who wants to have the freedom to make his own choices. despite this being pretty important to him he inevitably tries to be a hero and involves himself in other people's shit for no reason. it doesn't help that the side characters he's doing shit for are irritating or annoying . also important to him is learning about the magic system which exists outside of just being a numerical system (yay). more time should be spent doing this because it's the best part of the novel.

it's one of the better quality books on wn. it has a few important informations missing or change subtly change through the chapters but they aren't glaring plot holes. (well one is but most won't really notice it) I hope the author takes his time to plan and keep track of the important information to minimize the changes. that said this is a general issue with books on wn because they aren't rewritten and edited for another year or two after the first version was finished. we most likely are reading the first written out version of it

The story has a fine concept, and is nice to read. World background is now simple but has potential to became good. I am interested what the story wil became.

it's a wonderful story, main character is a bit fun, no major writing errors from what I see. the magic system is very mechanical in a technical sense, although MC is the only one able to use it like this. currently mc outwits with stuff rather than raw power. only big thing is I wish there was more

Honestly I love this story Thank you author for blessing my eyes with such a beautiful story I love that the Mc prioritizes freedom over everything else and it perfectly embodies what I would feel in the situation I know it sounds crazy but I’ve never seen a Mc care so much about his freedom so much, it makes me feel like this Mc is a extension of me Anyway thank you

on chapter 40 so far. I like the pacing it is a little slower. mc is not instantly op and has a somewhat reasonable explanation of how they got strong. World building is not super unique but has its own twist.

As of writing this review I’m at chapter 137 out of the 170 currently posted. As the author has mentioned in their own review, they are obviously new to writing. At first the writing is a bit choppy and personally I would enjoy some more POV hopping to show the thoughts of characters other than the MC. There is obvious improvement in the writing as the The story goes on and nothing has been so bad that I have wanted to drop the novel. So far the MC is just getting started and in in a phase of exploring and experiencing the world. I hope that later this shifts from him learning and gaining experience to making moves of his own to change the world.

But of a rough start but good overall, I look forward to reading more of this.

This is an awsome book, the only downside I'd mention is the grammar, as you have to swap/change words or add/remove commas and dots very often.

The fights in this story are just hard to understand, mc pulled every feat with runecraft that the reader doesn’t understand what it do. But overall it’s okay 👌

I really don't like his subservient character. Don't be pushed around by others, if you have the power to do so.

this is my observations for reading this so far I am completely baffled by the power is scaling in this story and it is oddly similar to the runesmith ps. might be a little late for this but it's generally not good idea to go over a hundred enemies you're aware of human brain can only calculate so much it's hard to imagine when you get that many large of numbers it's hard to visualize it just becomes confusing especially in the early chapter as you're talking about killing thousands of wolves a hundred of bandits quite a big jump in power level he just got his first class. clarify I'm not complaining I'm just pointing out how I see it besides that the authors writing is pretty good

I like this style, it's light enough and does not get bogged in minutae. The story is gripping and character development is good. So far read 55 chapters and quite hooked.

Another salve book? Man i just want a good book where mc is not a slave of some sort of overpowered girl. It had to end before it even started. Anyway i will give this a full stars. Just not cup of my tea.
