Review: Interesting but...
Rating: 2 out of 5

The premise is interesting and the character development is fine, but this book is described as the 3rd edition which is difficult to believe considering how desperately this book needs editing. Some other reviews state there are a few typo's which is completely inaccurate. There are typo's on nearly every page and they are distracting. Sentence structure flows back and forth between good and what I would expect from my twelve year old niece.The dialog could be good but for the fact the author uses perfect grammar and nobody talks like that making it difficult to read plus the author doesn't open and close quotes correctly all the time. This is also distracting in that occasionally you read some dialog and it ends without you realizing it until you start reading a new bit of dialog only to find the close quote placed in front of the new opening bit of dialog.I like the book well enough to get the next part, but if the next installment is as poorly edited as this one I will leave a scathing one star review why? Because the author is a teacher and should know better.One last point which is really nit-picking; at one point the author is describing a scene where a fighter gets hit in the wing which causes it to lose stability. In the vacuum of space a fighter getting hit in the wing would have no effect on stability otherwise the scene is really well done.Sacha
