BEE’S REVIEWS
Hmmm…what can I say? Well cliché as it may sound, there is good news and bad news.
The good news- like to start with that one because it always reminds me of how a butcher fattens up a chicken before killing it-is that there were few typographical errors. The story actually flowed from one point to another and I was able to keep track of what was happening despite the different POVs. But I’m afraid that is all the good news you’ll get.
The bad news….wow. …. Lemme tell you there is a lot of bad news
First of all, the story itself, it was obvious what you were hinting at though you actually did not elaborate on that part. Also I noticed that none of your characters had a strong Christian or any religious background so mostly their experiences were similar. What about a religious man who knows what has happened but was left behind? What would be his story? If it were not for their circumstances, there would be virtually no difference amongst them. It was like you were using the same template but just under different names.
THE STORY
And the end…………dude what was up with the ending. You ended with an unnecessary cliffhanger that did not give even a partial explanation for what had happened nor did it provide any hint as to what was to come in the future. What was role of the pope? How did he contribute to the story? The ending was a disaster, a travesty, an abomination.
Also, you kept cutting people off even when they were about to give explanations which don’t really go to the actual plot. For instance, you could have allowed the attendant to give an explanation as to why John could not remember anything. It really doesn’t hurt the plot does it?
THINGS THAT DON’T MAKE SENSE…….LIKE AT ALL
Why would John ask the attendant whom he clearly knew had just arrived on the scene what had happened?
John keeled over so I assume he was on the ground or he fell onto his knees, so then how can you go on to say that his legs wobbled and he collapsed since he couldn’t have been resting his weight on his feet
Oh I almost forgot, does John wake up every time stifling a scream…I mean what a wuss
THE SCENERY
Also you spent so much time describing the scene in the first chapter, running back and forth of the same things. Again, apart from the first scene, you did not give enough detail on the location of the rest of the character such that any reader could form atleast a partial picture of what was happening…the hospital, the conference room, the bunker,
THE DICTION
And you used the expression “what the hell is happening” that at some point I almost tore my hair out of pure exasperation. And what was up with the constant use of the word “Jesus”
