Review: IT BITES BUT NOT IN A GOOD WAY
Rating: 1 out of 5
Date: 11 8, 2011
Trying to read this novel was like trying to watch American Idol - where the contestant (poor thing) has been misinformed by friends that they have talent but in reality they are really, really bad and only end up embarrassing themselves.  Same thing here - it's that bad!  Waste of time, money and space on my Kindle.The really tough question is where to even start when there are so many things just plain wrong.- The writing is so amateurish that you swear that it had to be written by a teenager that really did not have much life experience.- FYI, England is an island- The supposedly Hero is over 300 years old but acts more like a 19 year old kid. (He runs to Mommy and Daddy when he gets upset with the Council and Daddy threatens to kill the entire Council because baby boy is upset.  Mommy calls the Hero at one point to advise him on what he needs to do.)- There are several scenes where the main female character has a run in with some bullies - it would have worked if the scenes were set in either Grade or High school - but College - really?  One scene is where the so call Heroine is accosted by other immature girls that taunt her because of the way she is dressed and the fact that her Mother is gone.Setting - College hallwayTime Frame - right before graduation, also known as "Crunch Time" for those that have actually been to collegeAND YOU HAVE A BUNCH OF 20 YEAR OLD WOMEN THAT ACT AND BEHAVE AS TEENAGERS?  "HUH"?  Even in Sci-Fi, the actions and events have to be plausible!- Typos that could have easily been corrected- A minor character, the heroine's Boss, that hasn't realized that the Heroine hasn't taken off a day in TWO YEARS?- Both the Male and Female protagonists are just too whining - too juvenile to be interesting - more like "Rebels without a Clue!"- What romance?  Was there suppose to be romance - or just some heavy groping?The above are only a few of the items that made this book so juvenile, boring and a waste of resources.  While others have stated that it's not for anyone under 17 years of age because of the sexual content - most of the writing could only appeal to that age group.
