How far would you go to exact revenge? To what depths would you travel? Would you stop at absolutely nothing to inflict your own particular brand of vengeance? Or maybe you would be more likely to turn the other cheek and simply walk away. Whatever path you decide to take, make no mistake, the concept of revenge has been around for as long as humans have roamed the earth! Nevertheless, one person's idea of getting even may be quite different than that of another. In his short story "Princess Gives it Away", author Dab10 shows just how far someone will sink in order to exact retribution.
"Princess Gives it Away" is pretty much a story about the American Dream gone wrong...maritally speaking that is. We have the main character, Frank, who weds someone he believes will be the perfect wife for him. Things are fine at first but they begin to deteriorate fast. Through a "canine assisted" stroke of luck, he discovers that his loyal and devoted wife is in fact having an affair behind his back. The remainder of the story is focussed upon the many twisted methods which Frank and his team deploy in order to ultimately wreak his vengeance.
The theme of revenge is fairly common in literature. Some would even say it is overdone. That being said, if a story is to utilize this motif it really needs something special to stand out. This could include a web of complex story events, dynamic and memorable characters or a smooth flowing writing style which engages the reader from start to finish. Unfortunately, none of that exists in this story. The entire piece comes across almost like a rant and there is no real feeling of authenticity or believability. Further, the characters are quite flat and and easily forgotten. Throw in a heavy dose of poor editing and we are left with a poorly written story.
It actually pains me to write this review due to its negative nature. However, the positive point would be that the actual concept could work if it was supported in much more detail. The story itself is "workable", but it needs a lot of work. For instance, even the cover is quite poorly done. This is usually the first thing which will draw readers to your work and needs to be powerful and catchy. All that being said, I would categorize this story as a good potential outline for a much more polished work.

Thank God Amazon offers it for free because I would have to shoot myself if I've paid for this.
The first page and half was funny but then it all went downhill from there.
The cover is fugly but it still caught my interest because it has a yorkie on it.
Some pieces of writing are unnecessary. This one is even worse. This is garbage. Basically ideal to read if you're in the mood for writing a snark filled hate review.

"Princess gives it away" by Dab10 is a clever short story about the whirlwind romance and marriage of an 'it' couple that takes an unexpected turn.
It is hard to tell more of the plot but the point of view by the narrator helps to limit what the reader knows and so we experience the drama as it unfolds first hand. The story is cleverly plotted and was to me very unpredictable. You think it is a one-idea piece but then it comes up with more.
Dab10 focuses on the essentials and wastes no time in this well paced story.Short and to the point and with a satisfactory or rewarding end this is certainly worth reading.

★★Princess gives it away by Dab10
This is a R2R that was given to me in exchange for my honest review.
This book is about a husband that gets stuck with the “rat dog,” for the day. Now, I’m sure the wife, never expected her beloved pooch, to get her caught. But she did, and now the husband and his devious friend set out for revenge.
While the potential was there, the story was sadly undeveloped. Glimpses of humor, would peak their head out, but disappear just as quickly. Some of the schemes could have been great, but they were named and then done, with no follow through to let you appreciate them.
At 10 pages long, there isn’t really an excuse for the terrible editing.
Thank you to the author, but the ending, was just far to disgusting for me.

Humorous story about a husband who finds his wife is cheating on him. He finds this out whilst looking after his wife's dog called Princess. The husband then gets revenge.
This free e-book has a few spelling and grammar errors. The cover design is terrible. I don't regret downloading the book as it was quite funny. The story is fast paced with unexpected surprises. The book takes less than 30 minutes to read.

Friends can be you best hope.
When things are going great you know friends because they protect for when things hit the fan. Read how one friend helps plot escape and revenge in one fell swoop.

This short story was a fun read. I would recommend this to anyone who's been betrayed and wishes they had the means that Frank does to help enact their own Revenge.
