The characters in the book are developed such that they drive the plot, tell reader where the story comes from and where it headed. They allow us to relate with the visual surrounding and depict the story's setting well.

The character development was good, according to me. Although I would like to dive deep into some of the characters by reading the upcoming parts of this book.

Yes I believe the character development was meaningful and appropriate because it helps tell the story in clarity. For example, the character of Bellona is very outspoken, and she stands up for what is right or wrong. Displaying the personality traits of a character in a book is very important for the reader.

The character development is well-done and meaningful. Characters like Keldiari and Luta are deeply explored. Keldiari's journey, marked by personal losses during the migration, shows her emotional growth and impacts those around her. Luta's character is developed through his experiences and challenges with the botai, an alien species, highlighting his moral dilemmas and growth.

The Great Migration" by Steve Ramirez was both meaningful and appropriate. The author appears to have used his characters effectively to reveal major background stories and deepen the narrative. For instance, through Luta, readers gain insights into the country's enemy, indicating a well-thought-out character arc. The fact that each chapter introduces a new set of characters intricately connected to the central plot suggests that the character development was carefully crafted to enhance the story's richness and complexity.

The character development in "The Great Migration: Book One of the S'orne Saga" seems both meaningful and appropriate. The characters appear to have their own motivations, fears, and desires, which adds depth to the story. The protagonist, Keth, seems particularly well-developed, with his internal conflict between duty and personal desires. Additionally, the diverse cast of characters suggests that there is likely a range of perspectives and experiences explored throughout the narrative, contributing to a rich and immersive reading experience. Overall, the author has put thought and care into crafting characters that readers can truly connect with and invest in.

I have read up to page 119 so far. The character development has been well done. The 3rd person narration and the sharing of main characters' thoughts allow the reader to get to know the characters quickly. A different group of characters are introduced and developed every few chapters. I feel like I will know citizens from all over the kingdom as the plot continues. :techie-studyinggray:
