This is a collection of reviews about the books I've read so far :)

Prison World is another project of mine, and I just finished writing book 1, so I'll be releasing the first draft on patr3on. When it's been edited, I'll release it on here and RR, chapter by chapter.
Here's a summary:

In the dystopian future, the Earth has become overpopulated. Even with the orbital farms, there's still not enough food to feed the entire population. To combat this, the government adopted a zero-tolerance policy. Commit a crime, no matter how minor, your body shall be exterminated.
 
However, things are not all bad. Instead of just killing criminals, their minds are sent into a virtual world, known only as the Prison World, where, based on your judgment, you might start life anew, or be sent to suffer eternal torment.

Despite knowing the risks, our protagonist gave everything away, just to secure a meal for her little brother.

You can find my patr3on here: https://www.patr3on.com/LucyLynn

If you're interested, pay it a visit.  The book will only be available to $5 patrons, and above. As a $5 patron, you will also get access to two other, first draft books, as well as a bunch of artwork, and a comic.

Min was born in a tribe of Goblins, where she became a hunter due to her great stats. As a hunter, she lived a simple life with her hunting friends, leveling peacefully. But what happens when the Elven Kind discovers a great source of Mithril in their little cave system?

Warning: This fiction will contain great amounts of sex and violence. Goblin society in my story is a carnal one, where everyone has sex with everyone, even there own siblings... maybe parents too, who knows. Min will be subject to gang bangs by her hunting friends from chapter 2 onwards, albeit, willingly. Rape might enter the story in the future and it also might not.

From what I've been seeing, there are multiple books on this site with manipulated reviews. Bad reviews have been deleted and thus the books themselves appear better. Although I can understand that a review made based on ~10 chapters of a book with over 1,000 chapters may not be accurate, it is still an opinion. 

People keep on saying that authors are deleting reviews, but as far as I can tell, I do not have that ability (it might also just be because I'm not partnered). Maybe those reviews are being reported as inaccurate by fans (yeah probably not). 

The only thing that deleting reviews does is angering the reviewers. On a site like Webnovel, where everyone can review a book an almost infinite number of times, it's just a matter of time before such a book is flooded with bad reviews. 

Advice for Webnovel, don't reward reviews with xp and limit the amount of reviews per book. A review is something that should be taken seriously and I find it highly unlikely that anyone would be willing to read a new book every single day (at least for an extended period of time).

Feel free to leave any kind of comment you want from questions to facts/spam.

A mishmash of random things. 
Daily chapter guaranteed.
Currently every new chapter will be focusing on a random topic. I will try my best to keep them interesting and short.

"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time place and circumstances the thread may stretch or tangle but will never break"

-------------------------------------------

Alexandra Winchester who was once known as the Empress had fallen into the fires of agony because of love. The scars that it gave her reminded of her shattered past and her bewitching looks gave her nothing but self-doubt and insecurities. The love which was meant to heal her ruined her completely. She was not afraid of it, rather she thought she could never be loved until...

------------------------------------------

Jonathan Jonas AKA Big Bear is the cold, brooding and ambitious person but there's a difference. He has a heart and it beats only for one woman and he had met her. The maiden whose eyes held passionate flames that had made him surrender. Made him fall so deeply that had left him no choice but to choose her and only her.

--------------------------------------------

He looked into her eyes which were glistened with tears. It enhances her dazzling eyes which were the colours of the uplifting dawn.

"Why are you crying, my love?" He asked caressing her face with adoration. His eyes held so much love for her that she could drown in them.

"I- I am so happy," She said smiling. "I am so happy that I am crying tears of Joy"

"I promise you my love, from this day forward you will only cry tears of joy and will never cry the tears of grief and I will make all of your pains even those scars disappear"

A story about revenge, love and war

The beautiful lady sat at her desk with an expression of deep thought, carefully going through the stack of papers in her hands. She was scrutinising every single word that was written, almost as though she was trying to find some rare bit of information hidden within.
This beautiful lady is none other than Crystal Goldlock, the same person whom Cyrus conveniently refers to as the demoness.
A good distance away from her, two maids stood attentively by the door, ready to tend to her every need.
At this moment, the door suddenly swung open, and a man casually walked in.
He exuded a natural air of noble disposition, and possessed a head of long silver hair. The silver hair was not a sign of old age, but the natural hair colour that every individual in the clan would be born with. Every step he took was firm, and his posture was straight. His thick fur robe only served as a boost to his majestic figure.
The instant he entered, the two maids in the room gave a curtsy in deference. 
"Clan Head." the two of them greeted in unison.
Alexander Skyhelm, Head of the Skyhelm Clan.
"The two of you may rest for the day," Alexander returned their greeting with an amiable smile. 
"Yes, Clan Head."
Even though they were supposed to be serving Crystal, with the authority that this man possessed, there was no need for them to doubt his instructions. The two of them curtsied to Crystal before quickly taking their leave.
"What are you looking at, my dear?" Alexander walked over to stand behind Crystal, voluntarily giving her a gentle back massage.
"These are the book reviews that Cyrus has done over the past week," Crystal spread out the stack of papers on the table. "Take a look."
"Hmm? That kid actually managed to do this much in just one week?" Alexander exclaimed in surprise.
He knew for a fact that Cyrus had been imprisoned in the main Clan Library, which contained only books related to magic.
Each one of these books was complex and informative, and it would usually take quite some time for someone to digest the information within.
Despite that, the pieces of paper that lay spread out on the table numbered in the dozens. 
With each piece of paper representing a separate book review, this would mean that Cyrus had been doing more than ten book reviews a day!
"Not just that, take a look at the content of each book review," Crystal prompted her husband.
But even before she said so, Alexander had already started going through them out of curiosity.
With his capabilities, it did not take long before he was done perusing the dozens of book reviews. After which, he could not help but to feel astonished!
Each of these book reviews was comprehensively done.
They were not mere summaries of the contents of the books, but provided insights on other possible angles that could be explored and the underlying meanings of the written content.
In other words, they were done in a manner that was nothing short of spectacular!
If grades had to be given to these book reviews, then they would deserve nothing less than A+!
However, Alexander was not pleased at all when he was done reading through the book reviews. Instead, a deep frown appeared on his face.
"Didn't you pass down instructions forbidding anyone from going near the Clan Library?" he asked in a solemn manner.
"I did," Crystal nodded.
"If so, then how did this happen? Who actually dared to go against my wife's instructions, sneaking in to help him with his work?" Alexander rubbed his chin in contemplation.
"I am not sure either, but this is not going to be good enough." Crystal turned around to face her husband with a resolute look in her eyes. "Since he is your son, there would always be people trying to help him in the shadows, even if it would do him more harm in the long run. There is no help it, we need to resort to extreme measures."
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Alexander was slightly taken aback by those sudden words.
Extreme measures?
What exactly did his wife mean by saying that?
***
In the Clan Library, Cyrus was holding an open book in his left hand, and a brush in his right.
His gaze was fixed on the pages of the book, quickly darting from top to bottom, left to right. From time to time, the brush in his right hand would move, taking down notes on a piece of paper.
This was the exact same thing that he had been doing for the most part of the past week.
It was an extremely tiring process, and he had almost given up when he first started.
Thankfully, the demoness was not entirely heartless, and he would be rewarded with a meal for each book review that he completed.
This was the perfect source motivation he needed in order to push on!
Now that a week had passed, Cyrus had gotten into the rhythm, and no longer felt daunted by the difficulty of reading. In fact, he was even starting to feel intrigued by the contents that he had been exposed to, finding them more and more interesting by the day.
Even when the door of the library opened, Cyrus did not bother looking up to see who it was.
Such was the extent of focus that he possessed at the moment!
However, this newcomer was not too fond of being ignored. Seeing that the kid in front of him did not even take a single glance at him, he could not help but feel slightly irritated.
"Ahem!" he cleared his throat loudly.
"Eh?" Cyrus looked up in surprise. "Uncle Grey? Why are you here?" 
"Brat, time to stop acting like you are actually doing something!" Grey laughed. "Your mother has instructed me to bring you to her."
"The demoness has decided to free me?" Cyrus' eyes lit up immediately.
Even though he had finally made up his mind to pursue the path of magic, it did not mean Cyrus enjoyed being trapped in the library all day long.
For one, the hard library floor could never compare to the comfort of his bed!
"Stop calling your own mother a demoness…" Grey found the corner of his mouth twitching wildly.
"Okay, okay, I got it!" Cyrus stood up excitedly and followed his Uncle Grey away.
Grey was not just a member of the Skyhelm Clan, but also one of the trusted aides of his father. He was well built and looked just like a typical warrior with his short silver hair and stubble.
But most importantly, he had watched Cyrus grow up since young, and always had a soft spot for him.
The relationship between the two of them had always been extremely good, and it was not just a few times that Grey had helped him out in secret when his mother was punishing him.
With Grey going along with him, even though he was about to meet with the demoness, Cyrus could not help but feel much more assured!
Little did he know that this time round, even his Uncle Grey would be powerless to help him.
It was a short walk before Grey led Cyrus into the room where Crystal awaited with a maid by her side.
The design of the room was simple enough.
Other than an exquisite hexagon platform that stretched two metres from end to end, there was nothing else in the room. There were no windows, and the only thing providing any sort of illumination was a small crystal that was shining brightly from the ceiling.
"My Lady," Grey nodded respectfully as he entered the chamber.
This was the etiquette expected of all clan members when they were in the presence of the spouse of the Clan Head.
On the other hand, Cyrus stubbornly remained silent.
"Thank you for your help, Grey." Crystal nodded to Grey in response, apparently already used to being ignored by Cyrus.
However, the next words that came out of Crystal's mouth certainly drew Cyrus' attention.
"You may leave now."
"What? Why are you asking Uncle Grey to leave?" Cyrus hurriedly held onto Grey's long sleeves. "He is not an outsider! He can listen to whatever you have to say as well!"
What a joke!
If his Uncle Grey left the room, who would be left to protect him?
"This..." held back by Cyrus, Grey could not help but shoot a hesitant look towards Crystal.
Even though he wished to accede to Cyrus' request, the one with the highest authority here was still Crystal. 
As long as Crystal insisted, Grey would have no choice but to obey her instructions. 
Seeing the desperate look in Cyrus' eyes, Crystal let out a faint smile. "Stay then, it doesn't make any difference. This will not take long anyway."
Crystal then turned to look towards the maid standing beside her.
The maid immediately understood her intentions and stepped forward, greeting Cyrus with a graceful curtsy. "Greetings, young master Cyrus. I, Xena, will be the one responsible for accompanying you on your upcoming trip."
"Trip? What trip?" Cyrus frowned before turning to his mother. "Where are we going?"
"Not we," Crystal corrected him immediately. "It will be just you and Xena, and you will be going to the Grand Apostle Realm."
"Grand Apostle Realm?!" Grey exclaimed in shock.
"Where is this Grand Apostle Realm?" Cyrus asked in confusion. He had never even heard of this place prior to today. 
"This..." Grey hesitated a little while finding the right words to reply with. "Let's just say that it is a completely different world..."
"What?!" Cyrus widened his eyes in shock.
A completely different world?
Has this demoness finally gone crazy and decided to exile him from the clan?

When Cyrus was born into one of the strongest magic clans, it was accompanied with supernatural phenomena of the highest levels.

The Skyhelm clan celebrated for days on end, believing that they had just ushered in the birth of a precious clan member who would lead their clan to unprecedented heights in the future.

But despite the incredible latent potential within him, Cyrus grew up to be a disappointment who had no interest in pursuing the path of magic.

After all, learning magic was extremely time consuming. 

Why would he ever want to spend all that time on reading books, especially when he hardly even have enough time to finish eating all the different delicacies waiting for him out there in the various corners of this world?

However, after Cyrus ended up being imprisoned in the clan library, he started to realise the one truth of the world of magic...

Advancing in the magical path would greatly increase his lifespan, which meant that he would have that much more time to spend on looking for delicacies. At that point, he would not only be able to enjoy the delicacies of his era, but even those in the eras to come!

To answer some of the questions:

1. Right now, please treat this book as a book that doesn't connect to my other existing book's. A new separate book.

2. This story is going to be different. 

3. The male lead is going to be different. This male lead is not going to be sweet. He's going to fall on the evil side and the story will fall on a more darker side if you haven't picked it up in the synopsis. 

Yes, there will be character development but in good time. Do not tell the author how to write and when to write. Things will happen when it needs to.

4. I would request readers not to bring up other characters from the other book. 

5. Please leave reviews that are related to the book and about the book so that readers know what the book is about, not what my other books are about. Reviews are helpful for readers when they want to know what the story is about.

"Your bed is cold," spoke a voice in the room that had her eyes go wide in fear. Nervously, she turned around, gulping softly to see a shadow on her bed as if someone laid down there and the man who had been lying down sat up emerging out from the shadows where he had been waiting for her.

"What are you doing here?" she asked when his feet touched the ground and he pushed himself up to start walking towards her. His handsome features looked more darker than usual because of the lack of light in the room.

"I came to meet you," he tilted his head, "Where did you go?"

"I went out for a walk," came the quick reply that had him smile, a smile that scared her the most.

She took a step back when he came close to her but that didn't stop him from cornering her and her back hit the wall behind her. He raised his hand towards her face and she closed her eyes, scared. She shuddered when his fingers trail down from her temple and her jaw and neck. Her blonde hair was left open.

"In the middle of the night?" she didn't answer him knowing he could decipher her lies through her words. He stepped closer that had her turn her face away from him and his words vibrated on the skin of her neck,

"Did you go to meet him, my sweet girl?"

Hello dear readers, please read the below note. 
Readers who have already read the past chapters on this must-have found the similarities when it came to this book and the currently ongoing book 'Belle Adams' Butler'. It is because I am using the very same concept like this one and would be expanding it in BAB. 
Due to which this book will have a change of story. Do not delete it because I will be posting the chapters right here. 
The reviews will be deleted so that fresh reviews related to the book can be given to it. I am planning to add another book to the series and it would be updated on the available time with BAB getting the priority of update. 
Thank you for your understanding~


Long time no see people, hermit here.

It's that time of the year again, time for me to write why I'm not writing. Feel free to be upset about this in the comments, while I pretend that I'll have this writing thing under control from now on.

First off, I haven't been posting for various reasons, though I have been writing again since a while ago. I had my hand injured around the start of the year and couldn't type for a while, and then got all anxious about missing deadlines for Enlightened Empire without informing all of you (again), so I didn't want to post without being caught up with my schedule at least. Luckily, there was a very convenient pandemic which forced me into a bunch of free time, so I managed to get that done eventually... but then I had like 30 chapters piled up, and reformating, scheduling and posting 30 chapters each on three different sites all at once sounded like a nightmare, so I've kept pushing it back for no good reason.

As a result, I've decided to do this in parts instead. From today on, I'll update 5 chapters a day, until I'm caught up again (which may take me a week or so).

At the same time, there's two more projects I'll be updating:

1. The Last Utopia, my dystopian sci-fantasy story, is no longer an amazon exclusive, so I'll be posting the full version for free on this site over the next week or so. For now, I'll consider this an experiment for later novels, to see if this move has any effect on book sales (positive or negative). We'll see if I'll end up doing the same for every future novel, or just for this one.

2. I've been working on a xianxia novel with some murder mystery elements mixed in which I'm comfortable to let others see now... and I already have the first couple chapters up on my pat-reon (pat-ren.com/hermitscave). I'll start posting chapters here (and unlocking more pat-reon chapters) once I've settled on a final title, and once I've got a half-decent cover. May take me between an hour and several years.

So that's everything I've got in the works, plenty of content to binge through if you still care about any of my stuff at this point. And with all that apocalypse happening outside right now, it's probably the right time for mass-content as well. I really hope this ends up being a distraction for a couple people, or that at least you'll enjoy what I'll be posting. As always, I'll promise to read the comments, though I'm not sure how far back I'm willing to go (there are a lot of them).

Stay safe, stay healthy, and have fun reading,

S.H.

A prince sent into exile, without the means to fight back.

A young man trapped in an unfair world, without the status to bring about change.

Combined, they will have both means and status.

Armed with advanced knowledge from a strange world, will Prince Corco be able to cut through the injustice, regain his birthright and bring enlightenment to the country of his ancestors to create a paradise of true peace, equality and prosperity?

“Okay, first step: Let’s make some Brandy.”

…that’s a maybe then.

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit to like even early on.

Updates three times a week.
