New Isekai Hard SFF Series
For my very first series, I took on they very beginner-friendly task of writing a story that tries to write absurd powerlevels in a scientifically grounded, rational way.
>!For example, think a water mage that finds out they can manifest tritiated water that can irradiate an entire planet and cause a massive heat/light flare.!<
The story also involves a dual narrative where I try my best to keep two stories that converge in sync, except the stories experience time at vastly different rates. And there are cross-narrative effects.
I'm more of a science/math person than a writer, so I'm figuring out writing as I go. I outlined the entire book first and am almost done. I've learned a ton, so I am going to go back and do a heavy re-write soon.
However, I think the story is in a very readable state as it is. It's just not in my current style. Please feel free to check it out here, if you'd like, for free on Royal Road. I did not write it as a web serial, but it seemed like a solid platform for test reading after I struggled to get friends and family to give it a try.
I would love to see if anyone here can pick apart any of the story or science behind it, as the only feedback I've gotten is on the prose and my unlikeable main character. The prose I'm working on, and the unlikeable main character is not going anywhere.
Note: it does not go into really graphic detail, but it does not shy away from sexual, sensitive, or violent content.
