I should have known. From the beginning when I saw the strange formatting (a big space after every paragraph) on my kindle that this was going to be a disappointment. Poor grammar, cliches, weak descriptions, anachronisms, clumsy sentences and malapropisms abound.While this is a genre that I excuse as fanciful and fluffy-- it still has to be well written. This was not. It needed another rewrite with a proper editor.Also, in my opinion the plot was flat and the characters two dimensional. Imagine the well crafted novel "Outlander" ... comparatively this book would be merely an echo of a memory of a bad dream on pain meds written down by a 12 year old who had not done her homework. (Yes, I realize that sentence was a run on.)I would love to see the imagination and hard work that birthed this book, schooled and guided. Then the author might have something.
