I know a bunch of you have been asking exactly you the heck I am. First off, my name is Whiskey Flowers, I was active duty army and now I am a proud member of the New Mexico National Guard. In my day job, I am a corrections officer, I watch the best and brightest Albuquerque has to offer and make little money doing it. I am originally from Oakland, California, home of dumbasses and knuckleheads everywhere where I attempted to become their leader until the army put me on a different path. As many of you have pointed out, I never got my high school diploma, I am a GED student but I make it look good. If any of you are ever in New Mexico and want a drinking partner, I got you.
I got my hopes up with this one as the premise is new and interesting, however it reads terribly. “Max” must be said about 200 times per chapter; yes okay it’s 3rd person but at least break it up a bit.
Some simple changes in italics as to what max is thinking in the scenario instead of just telling it to me in one flat line.
Disappointed, I think when the author develops his skills more the next book series will be good as his imagination is clearly there just the skills falling behind.
I was intrigued by the new plot idea. It was really interesting. The main character is very smart, of course, but he also has limitations that are understandable. I think the only thing that annoyed me was that there were hardly any descriptions of people or the dialogue. It was hard to tell apart some characters because of it. It was a pretty good story, I personally got sick of all the bullying but that's just my pet peeve. The mc does fight back eventually just not as much as I would prefer.
Quite a good story but it's badly told and in poor English. There are plural verbs with singular subjects and vice versa, sentences that don't make sense and adjectives and adverbs used as each other. The idea is quite good but the central character behaves like a thirteen year old when he's supposed to be an android with over 20 years of human experience. It didn't seem to be be written so much for a teenage audience as by a teenage writer.
Almost finished the book because I liked the idea of it, with an android in an ancient setting. The flow of it isn’t great and the android character not well developed, is not relatable to me. The final straw though was when the author started promoting the idea of social equity. Figured DEI would be next, so no thank you. Keep your politics out of it.
An intriguing concept, but it didn’t take long before the story began to fall apart. I didn’t find the ‘world’ believable and instead of finding Max interesting character, he was just weird.
Incidently the main characters name is ’MAX’, don’t worry if you are forgetful because the author tells you this every other sentence, this became very irritating.
I love this combo of sci-fi and fantasy. WF is a prolific writer worth a great creative streak. Max is an android thrust into a world where magic is real by the !an be considers to be his father. All Max wants is to get back to his Dad. His progress towards this goal is a great tale!
Another good book, actually I'd call it one of his better ones. I did have motivation issues with the protagonist. He went from Hell no we won't go, to okay long as you pay me, here's my firstborn. Still a good read though, very enjoyable.
Whiskey, I enjoyed this story, I don't normally like the advanced high tech type sifi, but you took that and brought it into the mid evil time frame that I like and I got into Max's adventures. Thank you again. Sincerely, Rick Shiverdecker
Sorry, but I found the writing style to be too painful to read past the prologue. Run-on sentences, poor paragraph structure, and a narrative that read more like an instruction manual than a work of fiction.
I've read a lot if not most of this Authors books and I think this is his best work. This has a great story and I think just the right amount of action. I do hope the second book comes out soon as I will be waiting.
This could be a very good story if there were less repetition and the multitude of grammatical and punctuation errors were corrected. As it is, I did enjoy the story enough to finish it and look for the next book. The story seems to have been written for kids or young adults.
Brilliant a chubby data can’t wait for Max 2 Good ole whiskey ‘another fine tale you’ve gotten me into’ I keep looking for new stories and rereading old ones
I can’t wait for the next one in this story series. I’ve really enjoyed almost all of Whiskey Flowers novels he takes you to another world of action and great heroes.
