Really enjoying this

Your main character is really growing, but the other characters are showing more depth too. Very nice. Only wish it was not so long between chapters.

Glad to hear you're enjoying! As for the length between chapters, I've been trying to keep it to around a chapter every 3 weeks or so. At times I write quickly, and other times it's slower. 3 weeks is about where I can keep it at a consistent rate, unless I were to reduce size from 10k words to 5k or something. I'm already nearly done with chapter 8, so I might consider releasing it earlier than usual or something though. I don't know. Lately I've been writing close to 1k words a night, which is pretty fast for me, so if it keeps up like this I might start posting more frequently. Anyways, pardon my rambling. Hope you continue to enjoy the story as we follow Sam on his adventure!

I've written other stories before. Not on here though. Bound in Spirals is my longest project to date, and I have many plans for the story. I don't think I'll be stopping anytime soon. I already have some notes for a sequel once the first "book" is complete.

Interesting story

Iv really enjoyed reading what uv written to this point, nd the new world is quite interesting though extremely feminist;)

Though in terms of severing and bonding magic, theoretically speaking, if u hav the ability to form or severe molecular bonds u could create energy source rivaling tht of an atomic bond if not even stronger(i dont kno if uv ever read a LN called mahouka but his strongest magic is kind of severing of molecular bonds creating a huge explosion)

Also, i get tht he has trauma from his past but what i dont get is y he only suffered from it from lorry. I mean in the begining a girl beat him half to death nd he feels guilty, he feels like saving the councilwoman who tried kill him, he cares about the instructor who basically maimed him, yet he only became scared and paniced from a girl raising her hand after he insulted her. Also how come he remembered tht but not the thing with samson. Nd where did he get all his kindness and innocence from when hes only known such disgusting peoplefor a long time(not including his father)

I hope u continue this story nd flesh out sams character some more..

Glad you find the story interesting! I wasn't really intending it to come off as some sort of feminist gender role reversal sort of thing. I mean most of the mean characters are women and are rather ruthless. I suppose it's kinda like an opposite of how our world was, but it is really much crueller from my point of view. The men are mostly viewed as cannon fodder or slaves by many of the women in positions of power aside from a few. But if you get that sort of vibe from it that's cool I guess, as long as you're enjoying it. As for the reason Sam only reacted to the instance with Lorry was mainly because he felt like she was trying to control him, tell him what to do, to use him in a way. Along with the fact that most of the other times he didn't have much time to have a reaction, if that makes sense. When Samson's sister beat the shit out of him he was unconscious pretty quickly, and the council woman died immediately after, with Delinna he was overcome by the magic's power. Admittedly the first 2 chapters or so I wasn't sure exactly how Sam's personality would be, so it's a bit inconsistent (I was actually going back and editing the earlier chapters when I saw your comment). As far as the memory loss goes, it's a symptom of ptsd. The scene in question is Sam's worst memory. In the coming chapters Sam's instability becomes more clear, so some of your other questions may be answered then. Anyways, I hope you continue to read and give feedback! I'm always interested to hear other's thoughts on it. Hopefully this helped to clarify some things at least a little bit (and to show my lack of forethought during the early writing stages). TL;DR It's too much to do a TL;DR

Love/hate

I really like the plot and setting of this storie. But Sams weekness have kind of put me off reading more. It really is getting sickning how wimpy he is.
