If you don't mind poor grammar and choppy writing, then this story is okay. The storytelling itself is good. There's even diary entries from a Ukrainian character that mimic what the main character is going through. But there are some glaring typos and rushed writing as though the author did a first draft without bothering to read back what was written and then just hit the publish button. It has some action to it but without scares. Mind you, this is the "revised" edition from September.Also, the story takes place in the Ukraine and I'm pretty sure the country's moniker is "the Ukraine"; but in this story the author constantly refers to it as "Ukraine". And the language Ukrainian people speak is Russian, not Ukrainian as the author laughably states. There's very little in the way of description or names of towns so it doesn't feel authentic.
