Lord of Mysteries, Vol. 1 The Clown, Part I

I found this amazing story through the donghua (which I also really recomend, although it isn’t even remotely finished yet) which really caught my attention, so much that I couldn’t wait for the rest of it to release and simply had to read the novel. And i was not dissapointed. A short warning tho – the books are long. Really long. As in the first part of it got split into three volumes long. But thats because the story telling is very detailed, which I adored. The book has all my favourite tropes – a young man is isekaid into a world at the dawn of the industrial revolution (giving slight steampunkish elements) and in order to find a way back home, he first needs to solve the mysteries surrounding this world, its many gods and the sequence potions which lead to divinity as well as the mysterious fog world he seems to be able to control (well atleast kind of control). The wordl building is very intriguing and super thought-out - no confusing plot holes or unnessecary plot twists. I really recommend this book to people who like intricate world building and aren’t scared of many words. As far as I can see, there seems to be no romance (sadly, as i do love a good romantic side plot) but that doesn’t make it any less wonderfull.

Simply Splendid, Marvelous even is all that i can say! It has a few themes that are pretty gruesome so its probably not for everyone, but its so good. The intrigue and discovering of the world, and the rules governing the beyonders and the 22 Paths of Divinity are only a fraction of what awaits you in this long spanning Book series where the first of 8 Books is seperated into 3 Parts and this is Part 1 of 3 of the first Book Now i give you a quick overview of the Plot;" Our Protagonist Zhou Mingrui a Chinese fella, but we will call him Klein because he suddenly awakes as the History Student Klein Moretti in his room. Also Klein seems to have tried to end his live, which he did but for some reason he failed to die, and our Protagonist is now in Kleins Body with the knowledge and memories of the original Klein. And know we stop because if this drags on any longer ill, write a whole Summary which defeats the purpose of reading it. But one thing i have to say is that Lord of Mysteries strength lies in its Mysteries and discoveries not Action...
