Dear novels lovers, I sincerely want to recommend you one of the best works I've read. So if at the moment you are in search of something interesting don't pass by!
This novel actually has a manhwa with the same title, so if you're not interested in the novel you can find and read the manhwa! It does not have any plot discrepancies from the original.
"Turning" by Kuyu (쿠유).
It's a novel in the bl, fantasy, and omegaverse genre.
Wait wait. Those who now thought that the omegaverse is not interesting or poorly written, you are sorely mistaken! The novel itself doesn't pay that much attention to this genre, so you won't feel any discomfort while reading it! I even forgot about this genre at times. (Although most of the hot scenes are related to it, but you'll be satisfied, I promise.)
There are approximately 970 chapters in the original, and 305 are available in English (free).
If you are already a bit interested, please read the description first~
Yuder was a commoner Omega who rose to the top with his ability.
When he woke up again after being falsely accused and executed, he was back 11 years ago before everything began.
He must not repeat the same mistake he did before.
A chance to get back……
To survive, and to save the world, now he had to save the man he had killed!
Are you more interested? Jesus, I love you already. Keep going!
If you want to hear the opinion of someone who has already read all the chapters available in English, @armed-teddy-bear answered some questions especially for you!
Q : Dear reader, please tell us what you liked most about the novel "Turning" by Kuyu?
Teddy : It’s hard to pinpoint a single part of it, since all of it is perfect in my eyes. The characters are well-written and never act like walking tropes with no common sense, the worldbuilding is one of the best I’ve ever seen, the intrigues are taking and all well-linked together to form an enduring mystery and drama that, as of 300 chapters, is still just as interesting…
If I really had to pick, I would say the relationship between the two protagonists is honestly a high point. Heavily influenced by the past only Yuder can remember, it still manages to progress naturally while never having a boring moment. Every scene where the two of them interacted became one of my favorites.
In short, I would say: If you think you’ve read a novel like this before, no you haven’t. In my opinion, this novel is the best you could achieve in the genre of rebirth/time travel.
Q : Do you think the omegaverse genre is ruining the novel?
Teddy : It’s not a problem to me at all. But there are a lot of people who are uncomfortable with it. I don’t understand why exactly, but it’s like that.
On the contrary, I think the way Turning handles it makes it even more interesting. It hasn’t played too much into the story that far, so it could even be ignored by people who don’t like it, but I think it adds to the story quite a bit by adding more worldbuilding to the “awakeners” characters and the powers of this world.
The reason given for why it happened in universe is also good in my opinion. 👍
So it’s a complete OK for me!
Q : Can you highlight any flaws in the novel?
Teddy : I became the number one fan overnight. In my eyes, Turning can do nothing wrong.
But if I try to see it from someone else’s eyes… Maybe the length would be too long for someone else. You have to wait 200 chapters for the main couple to kiss for the first time, and at times you see characters and situations being set up.. and then you don’t see them begin to unfold for another 50 chapters!
There’s also a very, very large cast of characters, some of them named only to never properly appear… although that can also be seen as a quality! The novel feels very realistic and profound thanks to this, as allies and antagonists fade in and out of the storyline in accordance to the plot, never overstaying their welcome or standing uselessly in the background of a scene.
The supporting cast is also characterized and explored, even if they don’t stay for long, meaning that every character is inherently interesting. It’s thanks to this length in chapters and depth in characters that the novel gains in worldbuilding and intrigue with each new chapter.
Q : Please tell potential readers why they should not pass by this novel?
Teddy : Not reading Turning means passing by a novel that can and will satisfy anyone!
If you don’t like romance, then you’ll find your happiness in the worldbuilding, magic systems, and political plots.
And if you don’t like worldbuilding, magic systems, and political plots… well, think again! I thought I didn’t like those either before, but reading Turning, I found myself on the edge of my seat with every word. Everything is explained clearly and logically when it comes to intrigue, making it easy to understand and all the more interesting — but that doesn’t mean it’s lacking in emotions either! This novel masterfully meshes both plot and character building, making each moment count.
But most importantly, you’ll miss reading the developing relationship between Yuder and Kishiar, which I think is the biggest appeal of all. I’ve never rooted for a couple more in my life. Despite a past together filled with pain, they still manage to be one of the healthiest and most sincere relationships I’ve read in a long time.
So, to whoever is listening, please read Turning. You definitely won’t regret it.
Wow if you read to the end we really appreciate it! Thank you for your attention.
Q: Dear reader, please tell us what you liked most about the novel "Turning" by Kuyu?
Teddy: I ended up writing a review.. There’s so much I like, my head ran blank
Me: Wow it's awesome.
Q: Can you highlight any flaws in the novel?
Me: Lmao... Teddy now: this novel is awesome! What flaws are you talking about!?
Teddy: How did you literally read my mind… orz
Teddy: You asked for flaws, I ended up praising it again
Teddy: Actually, I have a new flaw. Why is the title a single word. How am I supposed to talk about it and share it when it’s a single word..
Me: One word and so many emotions
Q: Please tell potential readers why they should not pass by this novel?
Teddy: My brain is fried but I’ll attempt
Me: Sorry 😆
Me: Teddy now: You'll regret not reading this masterpiece! It cures cancer and depression!
Teddy: LOL I’ll say it at least cured my S Class obsession
Me: Still, something heals 🤌
Follow-up question!
Me: Teddy... What hurts you more, your hands or your brain?
Teddy: My brain. I missed sleep to read Turning, and now I regret it because I can’t praise it properly ….
Turning you’re driving me crazy right now..
How do I explain it….
The way Turning is……….
I want to take potential readers by the shoulders and shake them. Please read Turning.
