Status Updates From Though the Heavens May Fall...

so far, very good. a bit dry in places where it staidly recounts the lives of the players involved, it seems to want to be a bit theatrical at times. the subject it's covering is theatrical enough without this editorializing i feel, especially since it makes the book dryer, not more engaging, but that's really minor in the grand scheme of things.

The early promise of a good story is certainly developing.
" You see, I am a friend of the London detective who was shot......I would hate you to cheat justice by dying before the judge makes an example of you".
The characters are believable and the quality of the descriptive writing is making this an enjoyable book to read.

This is a promising start. In the first 6 chapters many of the central characters have been met.
The central one being Amos Hawke, who has arrived in Cornwall to assist with tracking down the murderer of 3 people. I love the descriptive language: Quote: "When Amos rode along the narrow lane to keep his first rendezvous....a quarter-moonwas playing hide and seek with the cirrus cloud that peppered the night sky."
