Review: Interesting idea, poorly executed.

Put simply: Interesting idea, poorly executed.What story there was felt spread thin and dragged on. Sentences felt very simple, dry, and repetitive, with not much variation or description. I have no idea what color hair or eyes Finn has. It may seem like a little thing but it helps a reader better visualize and connect with the main characters. Also, the whole underlying plot of the story, the years Finn spent journeying or suffering trying to discovered for what purpose Engn was made, was rendered pointless. It was merely alluded to towards the end and in very vague, "it's-not-really-important" terms, if at all. A tad disappointing, and made me wonder 'what was the point of it all?'With a bit more work an revising, it could be more enjoyable. Still, I'm happy for any author who is able to get their work published. Maybe this just wasn't the book for me & someone else may enjoy it more.2.5 starsNote: I received a free copy for an honest review.
