Why read it?
1 author picked Domestication as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book surprised the heck out of me. In a genre where overpowered main characters are the norm, this story proved that even the greatest of powers can have limitations. It proves that with enough creativity, even the simplest of abilities can astound and amaze.

I could blather on about this story, but above all else, the way in which it was executed makes it a must-mention on this list.
From J.J.'s list on LitRPG for both creative worlds and engaging magic.
