Synopsis

In the web novel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse, people are forced to fight monsters and each other for coins, food, and—ultimately—survival. While mysterious "Constellations" watch the unwilling participants for their own entertainment, one man emerges as the protagonist: Yoo Joonghyuk, who repeatedly lives and dies in an endless struggle to close the book on this indiscriminate torture.

Kim Dokja has lived a challenging and action-packed life through Joonghyuk for over a decade. While other readers abandoned the story early on, Dokja has remained its sole reader until the very last chapter. At that time, he receives a puzzling message from the author, and the novel's inhumane world suddenly becomes reality.

As the only person aware of what lies ahead, Dokja realizes that he must utilize his omniscience to navigate the deadly scenarios and stay alive. Dokja was never meant to play a main part, but in defiance of those who wish to spell his fate, he might just have to take the lead in writing his own conclusion.

What can I say except it is the GOAT.

The plot and everything in the light novel is something new never seen before. The writer is a genius. The lore is deep. So deep infact, you cant even understand it even after looking it up online. It had great twists which you didnt expect and so much more.

It was a cool idea to have a story where the protagonist is not the mc of the story. Kim dokja isnt the most powerful troughout the story, but with his knowledge he seems like overpowered.

The character development is one of the best I have seen. ...

"I can't read it anymore, because I'm scared it'll end too soon.”

Excerpt From

This quote explains pretty much my whole reading experience with ORV for the past few years. I have been avoiding the ending (about the last 50-60 Chapters) for years because I didn’t want this story, one of my absolute favorites and one that made one of the biggest impact on my teenage life, to end, reach the conclusion.

But what would have Kim Dokja wanted?

Throughout all the other 10/10 reviews on this site, it appears that I’ll be the first to provide actual criticism for this story.

This review will have 2 parts: the first section will focus on the positives of the novel, while the second will be used to explain the negatives. I’ll try to maintain the foundational logic of my critiques to be as objective as possible.

POSITIVES————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

1. Overall plot writing:

- For the most part, ORV retains a healthy consistent pacing throughout itself; it rarely feels dragged out, nor does it ever feel rushed.

- The novel’s story-telling makes great use of many narrative plot techniques, such as ...
