- ~2.8 - There were some annoying chapters in book 5, and it had some of the most contrived conflict resolution in the series. It's also where the author forgets about some of the earlier developments/characters, and starts dropping in more inconsistencies. It's a bit too repetitive and uses the same methods to resolve conflicts repeatedly, with little real development for the MC compared to the previous books. This is also the longest book, at just shy of 300 chapters, though book 7 is a close 2nd in that regard.
- ~3.8 - Overall, book 6 wrapped up the first 6 books pretty well, and while it had a few low points, it was still quite good, and wraps up most of the loose ends. It's also the only part of the story with an actually decent romance arc that focuses on something other than just the physical appearance of the girl.
- ~1.5 - It's bad, especially so when read right after book 6. Some of the early parts of book 7 being decent, and it had a few decent plot elements, but it was not a good conclusion to the story overall. If books 5 and 6 didn't happen, or if it was a standalone novel completely separate from the rest, I'd probably give this a 2-2.5, but the way it just walks over some of the major developments that occurred in the earlier books, particularly books 5 and 6, is just maddening.
AWE starts off good, and stays good for a pretty long time, but somewhere halfway through, the author starts to completely forget about some characters. Conflict resolution gets rushed and often feels contrived, the story gets a bit too repetitive, the quality starts slipping, etc... The numbers given rarely make sense in the story, and seem more like the author/reader giving a way to "measure" power growth (which is unnecessary) than actual measurements of distances/sizes, and timeframes are often inconsistent, especially late in the series.He spends ~5-8 years in the wildlands, then it's implied he's been missing for decades when he gets back in book 6. In book 7, it's mentioned he spends 30 years + 10 years doing something, then later stated that 30 years had passed.
Book 6 set up for a good romance, and gives a reason to actually care about one of the girls in the story for a reason other than them being attractive, and showed the MC did as well, and the relationship with the girl in question had saved his ass on numerous occasions earlier in the story, even when he didn't know for certain who she was - something that had motivated him to look for her and move forward in the novel/accumulate power and standing to try and figure out.
She's just dropped in book 7, barely mentioned aside from "he looked for her a couple of times and didn't find her" - which was bullsh*t and made no sense after a certain point, when he was powerful enough to search the entire world in ~3 months at the most after about a year and a half after the end of book 6, then in ~5 days later on, when things were actually peaceful for ~20-30 years. He had the time and ability to find her many times in the story, and 2 of the antagonists received motivation to do so as well. The end of book 6 had also set up a situation where she could have easily played a major role in book 7, and it was weird that she didn't - it just seemed like a poor decision by the author to cut her out for the sake of giving the MC a harem, because the emotional relationship with her was a clear step up from the relationships with any of the other girls. She gets the worst ending of a romantic interest of the MC that I have ever read in a novel...
The harem BXC does get in the end is... awful. He'd had bad experiences in the past with all 4 of the girls. One girl killed 10, 000 people right in front of him, caused him to have a phobia, etc... the second girl almost killed him, and he only ended up with her because her father arranged it, the 3rd he'd seduced with an ulterior motive early on, then she forced herself on him later. Xioumei was fine, and was probably the 2nd or 3rd logical choice for a girl to end up with the MC, though he'd had a bad experience involving her and the 3rd mentioned girl earlier in the story, and had avoided interacting with both together ever since, though at least he had some reason to accept her other than her physical appearance.
Seriously, the way the "romance" was handled in book 7 made it hard to read.
1. At the end of book 6, everyone gets teleported right after having some life force drained. At the start of book 7, it's described that the MC looked for survivors for a few months and found none. Seems unlikely, considering a fairly large number of people survived. Additionally, some of those specifically mentioned to be found dead were quite powerful, far more powerful than some of those found alive later, including some unborn children... Given the nature of the setting and power scaling, that just doesn't make any sense.
2. A major scaling problem - did the people of heavenspan just not have any population growth or something? The world that book 7 takes place in is something like 80x larger, with similar apparent population density from 2 locations that were presumably the same size as heavenspan... It makes no sense. The populations of the other 2 groups being larger is fine, but the difference is just too large to the point where it doesn't make any sense.
3. Not book 7 specific, but... Imposter Nightcrypt's soul? He's there up through ~the wall arc, then is never mentioned again. His joining up with the MC was supposed to be major good fortune for him, but it seems to me he got literally nothing out of it other than being stuck in a mirror for millions of years with no contact with anyone, since the MC completely forgets about him halfway through the story.
In book 6, the "big bad" being somewhat relatable, due to being driven by a goal to live forever similar to the MC's, but nearing the end of his life and losing his grip on sanity and getting desperate. In book 7, it's a god wanting to finish destroying the universe without a relatable reason... and the MC spends most of his time in space basically alone, which isn't very interesting compared to the constant interaction with other people from the earlier books.
