Phantom Star
by Seras
- Profanity
Katherine has grown up again, in the far and distant future, on a space station, where her family scraps broken down spaceships for a living. But as exciting as living in space is for a former modern girl, there is something that calls her in the deep black. Her eyes lock onto the glimmering stars and she knows she wants to see them all. So she'll need to grow up, and build her future with her own hands.
Thankfully technology sings to her, guiding her in repair and construction so she'll build helpers, build a ship, and build a future among the rough and tumble frontier stars.

Jordy meets iron man
Reviewed at: Chapter 12
The story is a bit of slice of life and a bit of space engineer. It has space opera elements with some other points of view thrown in for color. Some of those povs are really well done and some are - meh but pov shifts are hard to do well. For me it scratches a similar itch to a mech engineer story I was following. The techno babble is well done - things are plausible and problems solved. The mc is smart without instant solving all issues and socially awkward without being a pushover. I do feel that if a character is reincarnated then being socially awkward doesn’t make much sense because they should be more emotionally mature than there pears but that’s pretty nit picky on my part. (Maybe more comfortable with an older audience and awkward with kids as they aren’t as mature- or being made fun of for earth jargon) There are some explanations for it but it’s a bit of a made up flaw. The ai is cute and well done, and I do like that the universe isn’t constantly trying to take a dump on the mc. It’s worth a read and a follow.

Small grammar errors but great story

Needs a little TLC going over for minor grammar errors, but otherwise an awesome story. Most of the errors I saw were simple typos, and nothing glaring, either punctuation or a simple word that was probably missed during a spell check or the like, such as 'is' instead of 'its'.

Enjoying the series

Just started reading and the character building is smooth, with a what seems like a well thought out plot, I look forward to seeing where the author is going to take this series. I'm looking forward to the litrpg element to be built up in the story. Definitely an interesting take on the scifi/litrpg genre

Must readstory

This is my 2nd favorite go to book,so I'm always checking it for new chapters. Thanks for the story. It's funny but also an interesting concept to start out in a space junk yard, but to have machines sing to her, on how to be put together or improve . Would like to have this ability fleshed out more would be great.

Great story with great characters
Reviewed at: Chapter 6
There are two things about this story that I very much enjoyed:
- The characters feel well rounded. It feels like they all have their own motivations and goals that do not necessarily center around the MC’s existence. MC is navigating the same world as them.
- The unique abilities of the MC are sufficiently and eloquently described without using elements that reduce immersion.
The grammar and general writing quality are also quite good, which is always a plus.

Super fun read!

Phantom Star is just a lot of fun. I had a blast reading through the 20 chapters posted on SB, and I'm seriously looking forward to reading more here! If I could give more than 5 stars for this story then I absolutely would.
There are some grammar errors, but they're minor enough that they don't take away from the reading experience in any meaningful way.

Amazing Series

This series is actually my Favorite of all the series I've read on plotgenre.com and I'm really looking forward to seeing where the story goes from here.
One Day there will need to be Crabbit Mech just saying

So good

I'm loving this story so far and I find myself constantly checking for the next chapter update so I can read more of it. I even got my brother hooked on it and now he's in the same boat as me. It has pretty good story telling and fairly quick character progression. It a fun read and I'd recommend giving it a look. 👍👍

Good basis
Reviewed at: Chapter 27
Generally good idea. Just needs to flesh out characters and world building. Suffers from same issues plaguing most space operas - lack of space. Using same prevalent old lazy tropes like energy shields (including personal), undefined spatial context, FTL communication that would basically make any manned interstellar travel obsolete (not clearly stated, but heavily implied), and last but not least highly convenient planetary landings. Only missing Transporter technology. All those things remove any inconvenience of crossing mind boggling interstellar distances, need of keeping track of propagation of information, meaningful tactics for space combat, fog of war, and in the end any opportunity for organically created drama.
But as I said good idea, characters with potential that show kernel of sentience. Reminded me of "Trading In Danger" by Elizabeth Moon, only needs more work.

El ritmo de la novela es muy bueno. Hacía tiempo que no leía una novela tan divertida. Los cangrejos son entrañables. Los personajes (aunque muy pocos) están muy logrados y la forma en que evolucionan los crabbits es quizás el punto más complejo de la novela. Estoy deseando nuevos capítulos :-)
