maddieoftheorangetree 's review for:

The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang
DID NOT FINISH: 20%

Oopsies…

I felt absolutely no connection to any of the characters whatsoever, and had absolutely zero desire to get to know any of them. Maybe Kwang was interesting, but he was only interesting because he challenged the main character’s world view. 

The writing was clunky, and the world building was more of a full chapter of word vomit. I mean seriously, why do we need a whole chapter of our main character in history class. Why don’t we just have like, idk, something in the back of the book? Or footnotes?
