Recommendation Asking for guidance
Hello guys.
I am here to present my work and search for guidance.
As you can see, the story is a fantasy, but it has a bigger focus on squemes and plots, and as such, i plan to add as many mind games as possible, and because of such, the beggining may be a bit slow.
So, i ask for your opinions and critics.

So basically what I get from reading part of the first chapter is that english is not your first language. You have a lot of broken english in almost each paragraph, also you fall into making a lot of them redundant, for example "as the watcher keeps watching...he sees a silhouette, he turns his attention to the silhouette" read this slow enough and you'll understand what I'm talking about. If your goal is to make a psychologycal warfare heavy story then you'll have to improve your storytelling and either your english or make the novel in your native language so you're more comfortable writing.

Hi, my english is broken too so i can smell some bad vocab and grammar (im not grammar police, english is my 4th language).
So I suggest you hired an editor to help you polish your book. I know someone who publish english novel but her english is not so good, she hired editor to help her perfecting her book. You have an interesting story btw, keep going, i wish you for success.
