Reviewing the starting time novel for Anime News Network, Rebecca Silverman called it "well-written, engrossing, and with the feel of historical fiction rather than fantasy". She wrote that "Suzukaze'southward writing mode is very visual ... the prose can make your stomach churn and hair stand up on terminate, not and then much in a directly horror way, just more in the sense of a nightmare coming true when you lot had convinced yourself that it was just a dream." She concluded by proverb "If you lot aren't tired of Assail on Titan or perhaps just want a boost to flagging involvement, Earlier the Fall is absolutely worth reading", and gave the book a grade of A−.[two] Reviewing the second, omnibus volume, she likewise gave information technology a course of A−, calling the book "an heady read that requires little prior knowledge of the AoT world." She was critical of the fact that "Sharle, who begins as a promising character, is woefully underdeveloped and underutilized", merely ended her review by maxim that the story "gives the states what the original manga does in novel course, and there really isn't much higher praise that an adaptation tin get than that."[4]
