Hello everyone, as you may know, I've taken Netvor (the novel) off of Tapas. I did this for many reasons, 1. Because I'm wary of theft even tho it's not my main motivator, and 2. It'll now be offered as content on my Patreon which will go towards me hiring a professional editor and getting the novel published as a physical copy ^^

 I will edit this message when the novel is finally available on patreon to read, but as of right now, I haven't started to post the chapter yet because I'm still in the process of editing as well as posting episodes of the comic onto the patreon before it's official launch in September.

Next is my original message:

To date, this is my most successful story, but it was in need of an update and I've updated it one too many times on Wattpad so I'll be posting the most up to date version here. You may already know I'm also making a comic for it. Although the comic will take longer to complete they will be essentially the same story.

There's a non-important note after this, but no need to read! And thanks for reading, I really appreciate comments and votes if you can!

'Netvor' is the Czech word for monster. It's a nod to Panna a Netvor directed by Juraj Herz, which was a favourite Beauty and the Beast retelling of mine of my favourite fairytale.

The original is a rare story where the prince is saved instead of the heroine. I've tried to incorporate a lot of that into Netvor with my characters but readers will definitely have to be the judge of that in the end.

For a general look into: I've mostly drawn inspiration from Panna a Netvor directed by Juraj Herz, Kráska a Zvíře written by Frantisěk Hrubín and La Belle et La Bête by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve with some pop culture references sprinkled inside.

The romance is a SLOW burn, and only takes place after much of 'beauty's' character is already developed, so that's a little warning for people who may be expecting the beast to show up in the first chapter.

Lastly, I hope you enjoy!
