Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 06 29, 2014
The Scrolls of Xavier(Xavier Series) John AshleyThe creative, descriptive and exciting style of writing keeps your fingers turning the pages to read more and more and more.The storyline was exciting, surprising and thrilling.This edition screams for a good editing. Even the best books Stephen King has ever written, have an occasional mistake. But when the mistakes become too frequent they truly take away from the story. This is one major problem with with this book.The story actually gets lost in the errors. The author needs to go over the story until he is positively certain it is perfect. Then he needs to go over it again.I must point out, some of the errors can be unforgivable when the same error is reparative. Like the use of “there” and “their”...when misused several times, I feel the author doesn’t know the english language, and if he doesn’t know the language how can he possible write?These types of errors will make the author a bottom feeder in book ranks.Obviously the writer has a creative mind and can create a story. He needs to put as much ambition into his editing.If the author doesn’t care what his writing looks like, why should the reader care to read?3 stars is a little generous. But. 2 is a bit low. Ideally, 2.5 would be the score I would be most comfortable with.
