This is just brilliant…



‘Renowned author Dan Brown smiled, the ends of his mouth curving upwards in a physical expression of pleasure. He felt much better.

If your books brought innocent delight to millions of readers, what did it matter whether you knew the difference between a transitive and an intransitive verb?

“Thanks, John,” he thanked.

Then he put down the telephone and perambulated on foo...

Structurally, not too sound. Characters were very shallow. Proofreading was non-existent.
Shame, as it had potential.

Dark Serpent by Kylie Chan
Dark Serpent (Celestial Battle , #1)
by Kylie Chan (Goodreads Author)
read in May, 2013
It's not often I give five stars, but this book, and the whole series, deserves it.
Great characters, great pacing, wonderful writing and an ability to make you always want more once it's finished. I hope the next one is soon...

Terry Pratchett
“Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.”
Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

“Over the centuries, mankind has tried many ways of combating the forces of evil... prayer, fasting, good works and so on. Up until Doom, no one seemed to have thought about the double-barrel shotgun. Eat leaden death, demon...”

Hi Andy. How's things in Dayton? Fantastic, I hope. I better get my ass into gear and get me copies of Overwhelming Urge and TNTMMAS and get reviewing for ya! I'm sure they'll both be as good as I have come to expect from the amazing Mr. Prunty! And if you could read and rate my first published short (Boneyard Smack), I'd be forever in your debt!
Take care, my friend!

Louise Thanks for the add. :-)
