So, I've been working on this for a long time, and I just finished writing a monster girl book. Its the first of a series I'm working on. I plan on putting it on Amazon. I've read some harem fantasy books on amazon and wasn't too impressed so I thought I might do well.
I'm posting the whole thing here because you guys are cool, and I wouldn't have written it if I weren't for the fact that this board exists. I tried to be as accurate as I could according to MGE canon because I happen to like it.
I was going to post it in the writefag thread, but I wanted to hear peoples thoughts and I thought it would take up too much space. Its rather long, probably too long, about 180,000 words. But I started it with the desire to make a very large harem, and make it as believable as possible. Full disclosure, I may have added too many girls. As a result in the future, any harems i make will be much smaller.
The synopsis is below
**"David was a member of the Golden Cross, a four-man mercenary band with his brother and two friends. They were wizards, outcasts to normal society.
However, his life and theirs changed quite suddenly when an army of monsters, led by the Overlord, king of monsters, interupted what was a typical small-scale land dispute. He and his friends were defeated. But they impressed the Overlord enough to be made trophies of his first battle. David and his friends were petrified, turned to living stone
3000 years passed before David took another breath. Now he awakens in a world where the Overlord of his time is long gone, and a Succubus sits on the throne.
Monsters are no longer blood-thirsty beasts, but lovely females who desire love and companionship with human men. However, not all is well with the world. These mosnters only have monsterous children, and a demographic crises is on the horizon. In the end, it seems Man may fall not to the sword, but by the bed chamber.
But one elf, Silas, one of the last males of his kind, has a plan to save humanity, and as a consquence the elves as well. By using the power of the Heaven’s Gold Spear.
David, however, is not so sure he wants to go along with Silas. For his solution may be worse than the problem"**
I was hoping for people's thoughts before I put it up on amazon. I like you guys, and value your opinions

I'm not quite sure what you mean. The story is not really meant for deep questions of morality. I try to give depth and reasoning for every character, a reason they do what they do. Like Silas said, its largely a matter of faith if the Overlord will succeed or not. but the reasoning of those who side with one or the other are almost always personal rather than ideological.

You're arguing semantics in a shill thread for a book that does not coincide with any of /monster/'s collective beliefs yet isn't bombed to death solely because the author isn't a complete dipshit.
Does it belong here? No. Is it a good book? Not really. But it has monster girls, and Opie's pretty chill.

You seem to be unable to disassociate "non-humanness" from sex. The presence of a demihuman as the japanese would say male does not mean it is a monsterboy.
Does "Silas" have a hentai-level sex drive? Does he have monster-mana? Is he depicted with the intention to arouse homos? If not then he isn't a monsterboy.
I'm not saying writefags should put non-human males in all there works, I'm just saying it isn't necessarly /chaos/
Also If you want to claim I'm arguing semantics, then I think it's worth pointing out that a lot of what's considered a monster girl is based on arguing semantic. Elves aren't monsters like werewolves or minotaurs or things that hide under beds, but they're non-humans so they count. It's the same with robots.

Monsterboys or animals are fine in a setting as long as they're not romantically involved. Lynch any furfags that try to to worm they way inside.

board's been over this since dusky made the place. you're being an incessant newfag about it. rules were that you are allowed to have those things in your setting but just don't make them a focus or have them be integral to drama within a story because people are liberal when it comes to drama.

Here we fucking go again…
Monsterboy art is /chaos/ because there's no plot to advance. That's why Monster Musume gets a pass, because the monsterboys exist to advance a plot which centers around Humans dispensing Lawful Hot Dickings to MGs. In the same vein, Monsterboys are allowed in writefaggotry if they're necessary to advance the plot (IE, Orc Dad in the Kasha stories.) I've incorporated male non-humans in my stories and never gotten ANY flack, because they were obviously there as a plot device and not to cuck the MC.
tl;dr - Posting futa art gets you banned, giving the Best Girl a non-human little brother in your writefaggotry as a plot device does not.

It ain't perfect, but I've read what else is on amazon and I don't really feel like I'm so bad I'd put off publishing books. This is something I've been wanting to do forever. People seem to like it enough, and I already published the first book. Second and third books are coming. If you don't like it, okay. My writing isn't amazing, but hey, oh well. I enjoy it, and people are buying it.

If you’re happy with what youve written and are happy with your name being attached to this then go ahead and publish it. If it were me I’d probably spend a few weeks or a month going over every detail trying to make everything perfect. But that is also a trap writers fall into. Constantly improving the book but never actually publishing it. It’s good you know where you draw your line.

It appears, Bromont, that a book does not need to be good, nay it merely needs to have the right keywords to succeed.

I think Bromont is saying that Opie himself has an attitude in which he views his own work as mediocre and is settling for that.

its more like I've read a great deal of fantasy novels and I am aware that I am not Tolkien. I'm not Robert Jordan, or Jim Butcher. I have taken Bromont's criticism and am applying it to my sequel. But I am not eager to write a complete overhaul of a finished work. This is not actually my first book, just the only one I have felt confident enough to publish.
I was hoping more for a discussion of the actual story, but all that happened was a critiquing of my prose.Valid criticism. But ultimately, it did not impede several people from enjoying the story and engaging with it. I'm quite happy with my book and my characters and I think I've gotten all I can from what has been said.

Your work isn't finished, there's spelling errors/missing words and poorly constructed sentences layered throughout even with your numerous edits. A finished work is legible from start to finish. I'd recommend you get an editor. An editor would fix many of the problems you have, with your writing anyway.
Not sure who to see about your ego. lol.
God bless.

Well shucks, I'm sorry about the rudeness. We can talk about the actual story instead.
I'll be honest with you guys, I don't know how to feel about that segment where David asks Silas if he could pull out his outtie belly button over the tip of his meter long king kong dong in a desperate attempt to convince the demon queen that he wasn't circumcised when he really was.
But I'll applaud Oppie over the scene where the group eats at a sushi bar, which devolves into a bisexual orgy, and David is forced to use a hot wasabi fart to knock a pubic hair off Silas's mouth and into Delilah's anus. 'Getting Pearl Harbor'd' is how I believe he described it.
