Review: A good series continues
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 10 6, 2011
I read for two reasons. First there is the pure escapism. Nothing is more fun than disappearing into the story. Once I get started, I am no longer here, but there. Second, after more than twenty five years in the printing business, I still proofread professionaly. Unfortunately, the second reason can overwhelm the first. If there are very many errors, the read becomes troublesome and tiring. All of these books have a great story, believeable characters, and though a little far out, there are times when I had to just put the Kindle down and do something else. This author is in dire need of a good beta reader or editor. Many of the mistakes are easily seen and made over and over again through the series. A great many of the plural nouns are made with an unneeded apostrophe. Punctuation is erratic, and many times inappropriate. Saxon, I love your stories, but I am just unsure about buying the next book. There is no joy for me if I get stopped in reading of nearly every paragraph. Please get a good proofreader/editor before you get too far along with book 6.
