Catherine ‘Cat’ Leblanc is an orphan that is about as far from super-rich as one can be. When the Incursion alarms start blaring and the sky starts raining hungry xenos, it’s just another blemish on an already piss-poor afternoon. ***A cyberpunk magical-girl alien-invasion LitRPG.It’s exactly as wild as it sounds. Collapse Aliens, Corruption, Cyberpunk, Disabilities, Earth Invasion, Evil Organizations, Female Protagonist, Game Elements, Game Ranking System, Magical Girls, Orphans, Pragmatic Protagonist, LitRPG It’s good light story with downsides.1) Cyberpunk very little part of it. It’s have cyberpunk skin but not cyberpunk flesh.2) Story flow are smooth but only 1 event per chapter. Other novels describe dinner as one chapter, this one gives you one chapter of recipe choose, one of cooking and one of eating. Not a problem to binge read but feels like problem when awaiting new chapters.3) System are cool and unique a little but mc just doesn’t use its near omnipotence. System here an alien shop with super ai companion. System user get points by killing aliens and spend points to buy some hight tech alien stuff. Mc here never explore this shop and never spend more than 10 minutes to choose smth. She just ask her ai new grenades with effects like black hole, big booms or smth else. Once a volume she ask new armour and gun.4) Mc just reject any plans or common sense till she will be near death. She hoard points to get deal with unexpected situations but every situation for her is unexpected because she havent real specialisation. She buy armour only after couple of new holes in her body. She start train aim only being forced. She even delay upgrading main implant (that control other and using as smartphone) and getting new arm in first chapters.All above make everything extremely slow and forcibly restrained. 300 chaps here feels like 50. But i can’t say it’s bad. I got entertainment enough from this novel. Epilogue? Book is end? Can someone tell me is this good or bad story?? at the very least, i remember the author having a few good stories… dunno about this one though.gl Okk Okay, it’s a fresh take on a post apocalyptic world. Cat the MC, via virtue of being not a asshole was chosen to help fight off alien/monster invasions.It’s not exactly a unique story…The MC is a orphan to be Hero! Except in this case she’s, also a cripple missing a arm, and she gets f#cking malware from a museum in her cybernetic implantat eye like five minutes in.Story’s pretty good, nice character interaction, no real Grammer issue either. This story the bad things get progressively worse, rather than all of a sudden the MC has randomly antagonized the final bad guy before chapter 10 which is becoming common. As a side note its set in 2057, if you want to compare dates with the anecdotes every chapter.
