Colony: Refugee book 2

Refugee #2

by Vlad ben Avorham

Stranded in this strange world, with no way home, Colonel Smith and company need to find a place to call home. A colony of the future, if you will. Come, see if they can remove the rather large family of dragons that currently have the spot they want, and if successful, who else will want the space, if they no longer have dragons to fear. Worst of all, that might all be the easy part. Starting over, and rebuilding a life in a strange land is difficult, stop by the Colony for a while, and maybe get a small taste of home amid the chaos.

Still needs proofreading !!!

As I said in my review of the first book in this series, I enjoy the theme/premise. It is an enjoyable, rather quick read BUT it is somewhat spoiled by bad spell check and occasional grammar flaws. Two of the many instances in this book are , "board" instead of "bored" and very near the end of this book not capitalizing the "N" and "Y" in New Year.

All that said, I'm looking forward to the next book in this series and will be downloading it as soon as I submit this review.

Nice Plot, but that’s about it.

As interesting as the plot is the number of typos, grammatical errors, syntax errors, and malapropisms that riddle each chapter completely detracts from any enjoyment in reading this story. There is no shame in using a proofreader and an editor and it appears that the authors entire body of work could stand to be exposed to both.

Still editing problems

Still having edit problems with this book. Missing connective words and for some reason the last letter to they . Love the story but the lousy editing has you re-reading a sentence again and again till you figure out what is wrong.

Entertaining Read

Colonel Smith is releasing more tech. However, he wants to keep things balanced among the kingdoms. I like the action, humor, intrigue of kingdom building. I look forward to the next book.

Heavy on capitalist theory to expand industries

Changing the world as quickly as possible creates some problems for the Americans. The need for cooperation between cultures hits home. Everyone wants to earn money and avoid war.

Poorly edited with many homophone errors. Plot is ok, philosophy and political musings were poorly thought out and internally inconsistent. The ‘magic’ was too convenient and the premise of no male workers was weak.

Building up from low tech society

Story is growing but needs editing are typos and homophones (died instead of dyed as an example). Spreading ideas around so not having concentrated to one group is nice change to typical.

Diction and spelling errors are distracting.

I would give it a 4 star rating but diction errors such as this “wireless telegraph as Smith though of it,” thought not though. Too many of these errors distract from story line.

Please, find an editor or proofreader.
Fairly standard modern man back in the past story line but absolutely riddled with spelling, grammatical and other language mistakes.
Possibly the worst edited book that I’ve ever read.

Good story line, but Geez, get an editor!
