Resumen del Editor

Courage Iro will shatter the Gates of Power to protect his fleet.

Born talentless, Iro has all but resigned himself to a life of drudgery, watching his sister hop across to the massive space titan for supplies. But when the titan explodes and his sister is killed, Iro finds a new determination to take her place. He’s not about to let weakness prevent him.

When the fleet encounters a new titan, filled with powerful monsters, deadly traps, and mysterious cloaked figures, Iro is the first to spontaneously manifest a new talent. Now sent to a different ship, to train with others far beyond his strength, Iro will have to train twice as hard just to catch up.

To protect his fleet, and to uncover the mysteries of the titans, Iro won’t just open the Gates of Power. He’ll break them.

interesting premise

this is a mixed scifi with fantasy and splash in some progression style litrpg. zero stats and state pages but there is a cool power system that gives magic like abilities to these future humans in space. they are so many generations removed from earth that they don't know what a planet is. MC and supporting trainee's are kinda clueless, the book doesn't really go to deep into world building but it feels like it's intentional so we have as many questions as the MC begins to have. looking forward to the rest of the story.

Slower middle, nice ending

Kinda sluggish in the middle, but with a satisfying ending. Eager for continuation of this series.

unable to suspend my disbelief

So much of this book had me thinking how dumb the leaders of the fleet were. The terrible training and lack of consideration for capability. setting expectations on a kid developed his talent " 5 minutes ago".

a tad choppy, but excellent start

I really enjoyed the book. it has the same prose "issues" I get in most of author's books (listened to 4) meaning I love the wolrd building, like the plot, kind if meh on the prose.
still, surely will continue to the next in the series

Hopefully turns into a great series

I am looking forward to the next book. Sometimes, I was frustrated with the characters forgetting things that them and the audience learned at the same time but that is typical stuff. I hope there is more Titan time and combat in the next book. This one defines the setting well.

Interesting story, looking forward to the next one

Pretty good story, great narration. There are some oddities with the world building that could be oversights or setup for something, will just have to wait and see.

great book

what a great book. story is really good. pacing is a bit slow at times but overall it's worth the credit

good book need more

Too over the top angssty. Silly adults

I'm weak, Im weak, I'm weak, I 'm a coward over and over. The training/motivation/methods get silly the last chapters. When the MC has hismoment I didn't cheer I said about timeI'm weak, 🥶 m weak, I'm weak, I ma a coward over and over. The training/motivation/methods get silly the last chapters. When the MC has his moment I didn't cheer I said about time. 20% too much angst, 20% too little progress

Good one

While i did enjoyed the book i was hoping for more especially after reading the description with the he will rip the gates open, well there was no ripping open anything. and i was not a fan of the POV chapters of the emo paladin and found him hilarious when he said that he wanted to change the divide of the fleet when he is an elitist that doesn't care about the "talentless". Now the MC was really nothing especial he is just average nothing that makes him standout other than the manifestation of his talent. i will be buying the next book but if the emo paladin keeps getting chapters I'll probably drop the book i didn't liked him at all or the spoiled sisters and it looks like the author wants to make him a second mc.
