Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint (novel), Vol. 1

After reading the manhwa(korean comics) I thought reading the book would be boring, however I read it in one night. The printing, style of the book was decent. Only thing I didn't like was translated names of a characters. For example Kim Dokja became Dokja Kim which really annoyes when you reading it after the manhwa or korean version. Characters 10/10, well written but don't have too much of a description. World 10/10 - everything happens in Korea, so you can see mentioning of a real places such as Han river. Total: the Omniscient reader's viewpoint is 10/10 for those who like fiction and mythology mixed with a reality. For those who don't like a slow pace story or when a lot of characters are from different mythology this story will be 7/10 or even lower.

This isn’t just another fantasy/leveling-up story, it’s a love letter to the readers. What starts off feeling familiar quickly transforms into something far deeper and more captivating than you’d ever expect. The plot is clever and layered, the characters are rich and multi-dimensional, and the pacing keeps you hooked without ever dragging. By the time you finish, you’ll realize this isn’t just a story you read, it’s one you experience. Fully recommended.

Omg! Have been waiting for this book since IzePress made the announcement! I'm a fan of ORV and honestly I read this chapters already but don't care! I will do it again! The cover is sooo beautiful and omg Dokja!! My only issue is that, yes the book come in a bag to protect it but it didn't mean that ppl should handle it as the bag was of iron. I took photo of how it looks and yes, I don't like it but it doesn't mean that I'm not happy with this product. Maybe I should have asked for a gift bag? Idk. Recommend this novel! You won't regret it!

Binged this book in a total of maybe 5-6hrs of reading! Loved the Webcomic and knew I had to have this. I will be purchasing every volume! So I have been looking for something with a darker tone but still with an action scene and underlying mystery. This is it for me! Reads almost the exact same as the Webcomic. The detail has stepped up slightly and is bit more explicit than what you are getting from the comic. I can’t get enough of this story! I do want to see the ending and also don’t want it to end. I think this is really good for the Anime lovers and also the dark fantasy and RPG style gamers. This may be a book but this is something I think anyone can get into.

This book is amazing! If you've read the unofficial translated webnovel, I prefer it over this official English translation. Only reason is because I am used to the way Asian names go last name first then first name. Dokja Kim sounds very western and does not have the appeal of why Asians go by last name first. Some words could have been used like "hyung" or "-nim" and "dokkaebi" instead of "goblin". That way people will become more familiar with the culture! The book came slightly damaged on one of the corners, but has super nice artwork from Black Box-nim! I wish there was a hardcover version since I feel like wear and tear can easily be done if you're not careful.

Fantastic read and love the physical version of the novel. The cover is gorgeous and textured!! Am so happy to own a physical copy of one of my favorite novels and the translation is amazing. The novel gives more detail and depth than the webcomic, so even if you’ve read that you can be like Dokja and read it again from a new perspective. Wonderful purchase!

The book was wonderful to read and I'm not usually a bookworm, just a sucker for apocalyptic survival chaos themes. Reason I am giving it a 4-stars instead of a 5 though is because the delivery was awful. This book was not protected from the other items within the box and was bent on delivery, edges of the cover disturbed due to no protection of movement. It wasn't bent enough that I would return it, however I feel to avoid this next time I should just buy it personally from a book store where they actually care about their books.

I love this story. I read the fan translation awhile ago and have been reading the webtoon. I'm happy the novel final got an official English release

Todo bien, un excelente regalo
