Review: Idea fantastic; execution so-so
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is book one of a three book series.  I downloaded them all for free.  After reading this book, I'm attempting to read book two.I'm a stickler for grammar, word usage, and overuse of adverbs.  Some of these issues bugged me with this book, but not enough to force me to put it down.The concept is fantastic (I really like the idea) and the opening scene draws you into the story.  With it being a free book, I didn't necessarily expect it to be as polished or edited as a book-industry best-seller and it wasn't.The scene is set for a compelling story to take place.  I won't do spoilers, but the characters the author crafts are interesting and the storyline itself holds great potential.  The problem for me was that the actual storyline is only hinted at, never developed.  Just when you think it is about to get interesting and some questions are going to be answered, the book abruptly ends.The story could be phenomenal if it were fleshed out and the characters developed.  The executive (writing style, editing, etc.) is okay but not stellar.  As is, it is a decent light read and I encourage you to give it a try and judge for yourself.
