Review: So Much Unrealized Potential !  :0(

I hate to give a bad review but I was so very disappointed with this one.  This story had so much unrealized potential!  The sci-fi concept could have been taken in so many awesome directions, but it turned out to be mediocre in character and plot  development.  The dialogue between all of the character was one verbal cliché after another.  I had to keep reminding myself that they were on an alien planet and that the majority of the characters weren't supposed to be human.  I found myself skimming at about 60% into the story which is bad considering that this wasn't a very long read.  There was no editing.  There were missing, misspelled, and/or miss used words on almost every page.  I couldn't get through this one so I have no idea how it ended, but I'm not very interested in finding out either.  That being said, this was definitely not the worst thing I've read!  The most positive thing I can say is that if the author put more effort into the character and plot development as well as editing it some, this could be very good.  She has a nice style of writing in that it flows well and the dialogue isn't stilted.  I would give this author another chance in the hopes that there would be improvements!
