Glitter (glitterandasphalt )'s Review:

World building and character backstories galore, Heroica became this real place I could visit every time I picked this book up. What first stood out to me was the well fleshed out characters. Not only did they have very strong personalities, but they also had strong dialogue to match. This is something I feel many stories I have read in this community lack, unfortunately. What we say and how we say things is a very important part of who we are, and the author excels in this area. I could tell exactly who was talking the minute they opened their mouths, which was difficult to pull off given how large the cast is. I found myself unintentionally skimming the dialogue tags at times because their speech was so clear and so refined. I didn't need to look for clues, I could hear it in their voice.

Another thing that really hooked me was the relationships between the characters. I absolutely adored the friendships that formed throughout this story. First it was Megan and Crystal, then Lucca and Mimia. There were also others, but I would like to zero in on Megan and Shelly, since I may be in the minority on this one.

Early in the book, it becomes obvious that Shelly has a crush on Crystal. Megan confronts Shelly, having figured this out herself, and gives him some terrible dating advice. She claims he must be a "real man" to be worthy of Crystal's heart, which made me wonder if the author was going to address social issues in the book. Her dating advice was so terrible it had me concerned for Shelly's wellbeing and wondering how this would affect him continuing forward. While Megan's dating advice is cringe worthy and about as far from healthy as possible, I do feel it added some realism. Both characters are in their early teens and had questionable upbringings to say the least. I would not expect anyone with this background to have any profound dating advice. In fact, I would expect loads of confusion, and that is exactly what was portrayed in this scene.

Throughout the book, Shelly blushes at pretty much anyone that talks to him, and Megan seemed overly desperate to get a boyfriend at times. I found these small details incredibly suiting after learning their backstories. She didn't seem to understand how anyone gets these feelings of attraction for one another, something I found to be somewhat unrealistic. It's reasonable for her not to be as interested with love as the rest of the characters, since she had a relatively nurturing upbringing compared to the rest of them. But to not understand it at all? That irked me. It seems Crystal is too pure to have these types of thoughts, something I will touch on later.

Without going into too much detail, the discussion between Megan and Shelly really showcases the character's meaningful flaws. They are not perfect by any means, and it made them seem real to me. It's obvious that they don't have everything figured out yet. This scene highlighted the fact that they both have a lot of growing up to do. I suspect that this was intentional by the author, and if so, I really respect it. I think there are a lot of authors and readers out there that expect hero characters to be shining examples of social justice, already equipped with this knowledge and understanding. I find this overly idealistic because these things are certainly not learnt overnight. And if they are, the beholder most likely fails to understand their complexity. The world can be a confusing, misleading place sometimes; it is okay in my mind to have characters affected by this from time to time.

Now, as much as I loved the main cast and all their quirks, there was one that I ended up disliking by the end. Unfortunately, it was the first person narrative character, Crystal. At first, I really liked her. She seemed to be this drink of fresh water I had been looking for. Crystal seemed to be different, she really stood out as a unique and underused character type. It's too bad those feelings didn't last.

Overall, the character lacks confidence, despite being stellar at nearly everything she does. Even if she has no prior experience in whatever she is doing, mind you. It could be argued that later revelations explain this, but that is more speculation than anything. All the other shining warriors love her for the most part, and her opinions seem to carry a lot of weight with them. On top of that, she also has the heart and moral compass of a saint. Despite her extremely troubling back story, she manages to keep it together for the sake of the world and plays a major role in saving it. It's no wonder she becomes a love interest so early on; she really is perfect. Too perfect to be precise.

Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate a pure hearted character. That is why I liked her in the first place. My qualm with Crystal lies more with the author's portrayal of her than Crystal herself. Too much was done to protect her purity, it made her become unrealistically ideal in my eyes. She lacked any real meaningful flaws and seemed to miraculously escape having any kind of real blood on her hands, a twist that I didn't enjoy. The changes she went through as a character were surface level and more in her head than anything. Her behavior never really seemed to change much at all. She makes the same choices at the end of her journey as she would in the beginning. All this combined made her role at the end of the piece very predictable and lack luster to me. Disappointing, knowing exactly who and what she was by that point. After reflecting a bit, I feel as though she was treading dangerously close to these so-called Mary-Sue waters. Sure, she has some flaws sprinkled in, but overall just a bit unrealistic. This is something that even J.K. Rowling was guilty of in the first few Harry Potter books. I can appreciate what Crystal stood for, but it was poorly executed in my opinion.

To add even more to the pile of things I did not enjoy about Crystal was the awkward use of first person in general. Her presence seemed to be looming in the background of conversations she shouldn't be seeing or hearing. At times, I was confused as to whether she was present in the scene or not. I almost began to wonder if Crystal was clairvoyant, since there was clearly something very, very off about her behavior sometimes. She wasn't. There was no way of explaining it other than bad use of first person.

I'm happy to hear that the author has decided to write his next book in third person. I feel third person is perfectly suited for the immense amount of effort that he puts into the plot, world building, and social structures I have seen in his work so far. There is far too much heart and soul in Pokémon Chronicles: Zero to be limited to just one character's view of it. I suspect that is why the author tended to deviate from the typical restrictions of first person.

The book is filled to the brim with intriguing character backstories, intricate twists regarding plot, along with countless dungeons to explore. I really felt like I had traveled somewhere by the end of the book. Some may even say that they had traveled a bit too far by the time they reached the end of PC: Zero. In all honesty, I don't have too many complaints about the size of this book. It just seemed odd to see an amateur author write such a large book. Typically, titles of this size are reserved for big name authors only. Unless you are J.K. Rowling or Stephen King, no publisher would consider a book this size. I also think its size missed the mark for the intended age of the audience. Sure, I didn't mind its size, but I also represent an older demographic of reader. My opinions will be wildly different in some ways because of that.

There were some technical errors in the book, but the author corrected them with the help of a friend. Overall the quality of the book was higher than usual, and the mistakes were forgivable. I think it was very good, being what I would consider a rough draft. Besides the failure in using first person, my biggest complaint would be instances of awkward wording. I found myself getting hung up on the way things were worded occasionally. It was jarring and took away from some great scenes. I suspect that they were sticky sentences. If you don't know what those are, look them up. I like to avoid them at all costs in my own writing. The problem is, they can be incredibly hard to spot in your own work.

Despite its flaws, this book was incredibly enjoyable. I found myself sneaking away whenever I could to read it and thought about it often. Something about this book really stuck with me, and it is one of my personal favorites. I find it an absolute shame that more people aren't reading it. I think that this author could go on to write something big one day. In fact, I am saving a spot on my bookcase for my first S.G. novel.

GRA Rating: 7

I reluctantly gave it this rating due to technicalities, despite its enjoyment being closer to 9.


Kat (Sheare )'s Review:

I love how the author depicts the setting of this book. It establishes a flawed society, not just a location that is bland and happy like the kids' games or shows. There are clear cut problems like disease and corruption and poverty and environmental issues. The political undertones of this book are really nice, especially catching my interests because I like when books get political.

The bestia idea is pretty clever. It is like the Pokémon world's take on mana. It does serve as a fantastic catalyst for conflict. The book does a good job of explaining this concept, too. Never once do I feel like readers receive humongous information dumps that confuse rather than inform.

The book starts off with introducing the nursery Crystal comes from. I wish that a couple of more scenes are shown throughout Crystal's years in the nursery, but that desire is minor.

I like the details involving Megan and Crystal's relationship. Crystal is a Piplup—a Water-type. Megan is a Cyndaquil—a Fire-type. Their species alone immediately imply their opposite natures. The types themselves also represent their personalities; for example, Megan has a rather fiery and blunt personality. 

Speaking of Megan though, I think her personality is very exaggerated and overkill. I get what the author is trying to do to create contrast, but I would have toned down her character a bit more. Also, it seems like further in the book the author is like "oh crap, I have to fix Megan." And then that is how she develops.

The stories of their adoption are not as overwhelming as I thought they would be. Their pasts are not dwelled upon as much; I personally like that because I am sick and tired of people glorifying dark pasts involving kidnapping and death for the sake of evoking sympathy.

The several cliche romantic scenes in the beginning with Shelly and Crystal are cringe-worthy. Scenes like those feel overly forced to me. I do like the irony of Shelly's character, though.

These. Epic. Female. Characters. Though.

Maybe it is just the fact I just finished reading Zam the Hybrid and Nurse Isabelle and the Kanto PokéDex... (which opted out of a review), but I appreciate the female characters in this book. A lot.

However, I find myself constantly forgetting what type of Pokémon each character is. I always look back at the cover and look at the moves they are using in a particular battle scene to deduce who they are. Maybe reinforce their species a bit more?

The plot does lag a lot. Some scenes seem to have zero purpose when read. I feel like a majority of the book is just pointless conversations that contribute to the book's substantial length.

This book has a lot of characters—like an unnecessary amount. Some characters can be combined to serve both purposes or some can go unnamed. The amount of them just distracts from the characters that are supposed to make more of an impact on the reader.

Half way through the book, I realize that I am going to like villains more than the group of heroes readers are introduced to. That is not a bad thing. I just tend to like FinVarra or Panzer more; this is not because my morals align with theirs but because I appreciate the role they play as a foil for the main character or generating additional conflicts. I do believe the book should have ended with Panzer because the battle seems to conclude the book well enough.

The perspective of the book is rather jarring. In some cases (for example, the Prologue), it starts off as a third person perspective with a focus on the Suzie the Kangaskhan. Then, it shifts to the first person perspectives on the children in the nursery she runs.

It is not directly stating a perspective switch, but he or she does switch occasionally. This is usually due to the author feeling very limited within a first person perspective. If the author still wants to be more personal...maybe rotating third person? But the author does not use this switch often, so maybe doing away with the switches is for the better.

The author does reliably establish various types of moods when the time calls for it. The tenseness of the scenes definitely have the language to reflect it.

He or she tends to overuse ellipsis, especially when it comes to dialogue. This happens a lot. The dialogue itself does not just have grammatical errors, but it is not formatted...effectively. The only powerful dialogue I read is from villains.

The titles of the chapters have rather weird capitalization. Some chapters are properly capitalized, but a majority of them are not.

I occasionally spot some semi-colon and colon misuses. There are also several minor typos, like missing a letter in a word or something. Sometimes, readers will see some accidental punctuation misuses, especially concerning dialogue.

I wish that the author actually took the time to use the dash symbol rather than just doing a hyphen with spaces around it. It would look more professional. 

Dialogue is a huge issue grammar-wise. That is where readers will find a majority of the technical issues, including weird wording, unnecessary punctuation, punctuation errors, misused dialogue tags, etc.

I will get to the elephant in the room: the length.

This book is way too long. Do not get me wrong, it is good. However, the book can only be good for so long until some parts of it become repetitive and unnecessary. It sucks more because, as a judge, I have to binge this. I usually love binging books and writing my review while reading, but towards the end of this book, it became painful to read. 

The book almost teases readers in a way, too. I will come to an epic boss fight thinking, "Oh, oh! This is a good conclusion!" And then it goes on and on after that. 

I am just about dying reading this book. My death certificate should say, "Death by Pokémon Chronicles: Zero" on it. Seriously, the length is that bad.

Around 250k words of content. It was hell. This is because I am a very impatient and nit picky reader. I just cannot sit around for that long on the same book.

The themes that resonate the most to me? Loyalty, friendship, a splash of love, the thrill of adventure, etc. This book explores a lot of universal, relatable themes that I find particularly easy to execute. I do like how this book subtly criticizes tyranny to a certain extent, though.

While I like the homemade artwork on the cover (thank goodness it is digitally drawn), I think it could have been positioned better. There is too much of the plain background showing, and I feel like it could look better if the characters took up more of the cover. The blue splotch at the bottom—which I assume is a signature–should be better quality to look like a signature if it wants to be included. I wish the title itself sticks to one color for the "Pokémon Chronicles" part and only changes color for the "Zero." These are only minor changes, but overall, I do not find the quality of the cover to be bad.

For the description, the author employs several tactics to make the premise of the book compelling. I notice that he or she foreshadows a potential antagonist, explicitly states the conflict, and introduces the main characters. 

I wish the description is not just one paragraph, though. The content is there, and I am not asking for more; I just wish there were paragraphs to break it up a bit more. I am not a fan of a description looking like a giant square of text.

Like one other book in the Adventure category, this book has drawings embedded into the story. I read this book offline, so I never see them. That is the only downside to it; if a reader is offline, it just shows up as this random blank space.

I recommend that the author goes through all of his or her dialogue errors, reconfigures his or her description, and decides on a uniform perspective. The author should also work on organizing characters and cutting out unnecessary scenes in the future.

So to convert to GRA score...

7.2/10


Gremlin (DI_Gremlin )'s Review:

Pokémon Chronicles Zero revolves around a group of heroes known as the shining warriors who must restore the bestia, the life force of the world, to Heroica before it runs out forever. It offers an action-packed adventure filled with intense fights and a lot of mysteries that are slowly explained throughout the course of the book.

I'll start off by saying that I didn't expect to enjoy reading this book as much as I did. Its opening chapter did a good job in setting the scene, but I felt that the style wasn't really to my liking, and, given how long the book is, I wondered if I would be able to cope. Very quickly however, I realised that I had been wrong. I ended up thoroughly enjoying this book for a multitude of reasons.

One of the best things about this book is its incredible attention to detail. I never find myself wondering how Crystal hasn't run out of arrows or how the group hasn't run out of food as it's mentioned when the group is stocking up on items. At one point, the Pokémon actually talk about saving water when travelling across the desert which creates a very real atmosphere in what should be a very fake world. Combine this with details such as premature evolution, differing marriage rules across different parts of the world and lots of other small things really make the book come to life. This is a world that could be real, and the author did a really good job of building that world.

Another thing that I really liked (for the most part) were the characters. Each of our main characters (barring one who I'll get on to in a little bit) had a distinct, unique and real personality and that was essential for the author to get right. This book hinges on its characters so much that if the author had failed in making them interesting, the whole book would have failed. Lucca and Mimia were definitely my favourites throughout. Lucca is a somewhat morally grey character who does what he thinks he has to do, regardless of the consequences, and his ever-faithful friend and servant Mimia was always by his side no matter what. These two hardly even share dialogue, but you can still feel the strong bond between them and that's why I liked them so much.

The main protagonist, Crystal, starts out as an ordinary village girl, and maybe that's why I wasn't really interested in her at the start. She was calm and thoughtful but wasn't particularly exciting until the plot of the book began to unfold and we are given small hints that Crystal might be something special. As the story progresses, the mystery of Crystal becomes increasingly more interesting to the point where I just had to know who she really was. When it was finally explained, I was thoroughly impressed. The author tied up all of the loose ends and explained everything in one dramatic reveal that actually made sense. Once again, if this had been an unsatisfying reveal, the book would fall entirely flat, but it hits the mark.

The main plot was solid. The whole concept behind the bestia was a really good idea and was explained very well. The negative consequences of a lack of bestia are shown to us clearly, giving the quest of our characters a real purpose as we immediately know how bad a world without bestia would be. There were a few minor plot holes here and there that I could mention, but for the most part the plot was strong.

The book is action packed and features a lot of battles and yet somehow each one is something a little fresh and different from previous fights. The bestia problem means that most of the characters have to use swords, arrows or just brute strength, but, due to the variety of foes that our heroes face off against, each battle has its own unique problems and our heroes have their own unique way of dealing with the problems. It kept the battles from feeling stale, and that was very impressive. However, I would've liked to see more of a negative consequence from some of the fights. I know that Shelly can heal his friends, but I feel that the fights could've had more impact if we really felt the toll they were taking on the shining warriors, even if it was just an injury. That way, it would feel like there was more at stake, and the battles would feel a lot tenser.

Obviously, the book wasn't perfect. The grammar and spelling were good for the most part other than the word Pokémon. At the beginning and end, it's written correctly but there's a portion in the middle of the book where the accent goes missing. There are also numerous occasions where Pokémon attacks aren't capitalised. This was disappointing to see as they are both very easy fixes that make the book look a lot less professional.

I think the main thing that the book suffers from is having too many characters. It's a lot to keep track of and a lot to take in and sometimes became very confusing. At one point there were more than ten characters in one conversation, which was impossible to keep up with. Every time a character spoke I was reminded that they were there, making it impossible to actually imagine the scene.

An example of a character that definitely could have been cut out was Brine. The legend of the shining warriors stated that there were meant to be six shining warriors, but, at the start of the book, only five were present. I assumed that this would become very important later on and that the sixth warrior would have to be something special. However, it turned out to be Brine, a character who just sort of showed up and then begrudgingly tagged along for the journey because she was supposed to. She didn't have a distinct personality like the rest of the group and she literally never contributed to a conversation. She was just there.

Given how long the book is and how much world building the author had to do, I wonder why Brine was ever included at all. Why not make the legend about five shining warriors? That's one less trial, one less character and, in all honesty, it wouldn't take away from the book. I personally didn't think the book's length was too big of a flaw given how much content was actually in the book, but I know that a lot of people could get turned away by a book this long. In order to fix this, the author must make executive decisions about what is really important and what the book doesn't really need.

I've already said that I didn't particularly enjoy the beginning of the book, and part of that was down to the frankly annoying Shelly and Crystal "shipping". Literally every character that met Crystal said something along the lines of, "Well, you and Shelly should date." It seemed to annoy Crystal, and it annoyed me even more. It was unnecessary and unrealistic and definitely should've been cut. I understand that this may have been done for comedy, but it just didn't work for me, which is a shame because some of the comedy in this book was really good. I particularly enjoyed reading Edvard argue with himself.

I have to question why romance was even included at all in a book that seemed so focused on its plot. It wasn't that it was all done badly, but, for the most part, it felt very in my face and intrusive. I think that the best case of romance in the book was Megan and Lucca. It was subtle yet still clear that Megan had feelings for Lucca even though it wasn't revealed until much later on. On the plus side, I didn't particularly mind the two characters that eventually got together, even if it felt a little forced. It was just a sub plot that I didn't really care about.

Another thing that I didn't particularly like was the dialogue. It wasn't terrible, but at times it felt unrealistic and childlike, despite the content warnings saying that the book was for 15+ readers. Maybe it's just the author's style and it's against my personal taste, but I had a hard time believing that some of the characters would actually talk in the way they do. If you're going to give a content warning for foul language, at least have that language worse than, "Gosh dang it," because no fourteen-year-old talks like that.

My final complaint is something extremely spoiler heavy and something that I already spoke with the author about so I won't go very in depth. I'll just say that if you're going to include time as a major plot factor, you have to be incredibly careful about paradoxes. Don't create a paradox. Paradoxes are bad, bad, bad, and they take away from otherwise good moments.

Overall, I enjoyed reading this book, but there were a few things that stopped it from being an absolutely amazing read. There was just a little bit too much going on and too many characters to be able to fully invest into the book, and unfortunately, only half of the ending hit home with me.

7/10


d_s_t_e 's Review:

I have a lot more to say about this book than what can fit into a GRA review, so, for the purpose of covering a good number of points while keeping it brief, I'm going to provide an overview of how well I thought this book addressed each of the basic categories used for judging in the Pokémon Watty Awards. Anyone who is interested in reading more (probably way more than anyone except for the author ever bargained for), I will be posting a much longer review in my personal review book.

First up is originality. This book definitely meets the mark on that front. It's a book that centers around the adventures of a group of Pokémon, but it doesn't copy the plot of a mystery dungeon game. It doesn't even copy the format of a mystery dungeon game. It creates an entirely new world inhabited by Pokémon, with an expansive setting, fresh battle mechanics, and a complex and original culture. The plot itself is also original, centering around the energy known as bestia, which was one of the aspects that immediately drew me in and caught my interest. The only unoriginal piece that comes to mind is the beginning of the book, in which Crystal goes through a very typical leaving-home-for-an-adventure scene. Overall, originality is definitely one of this book's greatest strengths.

As far as having a clear and unique voice and style, I'd say that it's a bit above average. It's nothing that jumps out as being special, but it also isn't so plain that it can't be said to have a voice or style at all. I think this is something that the author is still developing, which is understandable given that such things take a lot of time to develop and often depend upon a total mastery of the basics of writing before they can really shine. Very few Wattpad books excel at this.

Tone and mood were also a bit above average. There were definitely moments where the mood became more tense and the tone became darker, which helped to create a particular feeling for a scene. I think it could have been done a bit more skillfully a bit more often, especially for accenting the difference between light-hearted scenes of developing friendship and serious threats. Having a light hearted mood could have helped a lot in scenes where Megan and Crystal were arguing in a way that wasn't meant to be particularly serious while having a more serious tone would have helped during times when they truly were fighting, to give just one example. It also could have helped set apart the battle scenes that were the really big and important from smaller fights that are basically just temporary barriers to progress. Some of this was present, but not quite enough.

Emotional impact is a category that I nearly always give out low scores for. It's tough to get me emotionally engaged unless the writing meets a certain level of quality and the characters are developed well enough for me to really care about them. Otherwise it just feels like words on a page. In this case, I would say that it did have an emotional impact on me to an extent. There were certain times when the characters got seriously hurt and I felt worried or sympathetic. There were also times when I laughed or smiled. I will say that the ending probably didn't have the emotional impact that the author would have desired, which is probably because the character who made the decision that was meant to spark emotion had spent so much time talking about things related to that ultimate decision that it wasn't surprising at all. Any big emotional impact it would have had was long since spent, and all that was left was a fraction of what could have been. I think perhaps that particular emotional response had also been partially spent by an earlier event in the book.

***Spoilers***

During one of the six trials, we are led to believe that Crystal has died in battle. This was a moment of a lot of sadness for me. I couldn't believe it, I didn't know how the story was going to go on. It was great in terms of emotional impact and shaking up the story. But then she comes back. This really negated most of the tension that the book could have from that point on, as it led me to believe that the author wouldn't kill off any of the main characters except perhaps as a cheap trick. It also had the effect of making a part of me go: "ok, sure" when it came to be the time when Crystal was actually going to die at the end of the book. I knew it was real, but it was difficult to take seriously. Besides that, I had already experienced all of the emotion that I would have in a death scene of hers. I already had experienced a death scene of hers, and this one wasn't as bad because it was in the service of the completion of the quest while the first one would have meant the failure of the quest.

***Spoilers End***

Spelling, grammar, formatting, and punctuation is another category, but I'm not very concerned about it in this case. I'm aware that it's not yet perfect, but I also know that the author has yet to finish editing it. Besides that, I know who's helping him find all those mistakes. So I'm confident that they'll get fixed. The most I'll say is that a reader who wants to pick up this book today would find it completely readable and certainly better than a large majority of Wattpad books in terms of these technical things.

The last category is clear plot and structure, and I've saved it for last because I believe that it's the single largest issue that the book faces. I believe the essential issue boils down to the fact that the plot of the book does not revolve around the main conflict, resulting in a distracted focus that creates many unnecessary scenes while excluding many scenes that would have been excellent additions. After a lot of thought, I've concluded that this book is using the wrong point of view, and it has also selected the wrong focal point. Given the scope of the book and the nature of its main conflict, I think that this book definitely should not be presented as a first person narration by Crystal. Besides this, I think that the author loves surprises a little too much. There are some really great plot twists in this book, but there are also places where information is withheld from the reader when it would actually be better to present it upfront. It seems as though the author takes just a little too much joy in holding out those secrets, even at the cost of things like having readers sympathize with and understand the characters or creating an effect that would be very much desirable. There is a lot more that I could say about these things, but it can be summed up by saying that I believe the one thing this book needs the most is restructuring.

In conclusion, I'll say that there were a lot of things that I really enjoyed about this book. I loved the concept of bestia, and my favorite character was Azeth, the scientist who studies it. There was so much fascinating potential in her character and in the concept of bestia. I also liked the characters in this book in general. Each one had a separate and distinct personality as well as unique and intricate character designs. The heroes were interesting, the villains were interesting, and even a handful of supporting characters were interesting. The battles were excellent, never failing to be unique and interesting. There were some aspects of the book that I feel didn't quite reach their full potential, but I do believe that there is a great story here. The problem is that great story is only partially visible to me in the form that this book has currently taken on. I feel as though the true story is still waiting to be born. I can see it peeking out through jagged cracks in its eggshell, and I just want to see it smash through and reveal its true beauty. I am sincerely hoping that the author chooses to rewrite it and give us all the gift of experiencing it at the best that it can be.

In the meantime, though, I certainly recommend it for the readers of Wattpad, especially those who like action, adventure, fantasy, interesting characters, and great battles. It's an enjoyable read.
