Review: A little disappointing

Having heard so many good things about Eric's Bigfoot series and wanting to read something quick and unique, I thought Into The Light would be an ideal start. While the idea was original, certain parts of the story seemed uninspiring to me. Eric is known for his non-stop action, which definitely did not lack in this story, but when it's the sole purpose of the book, it tends to get old and cliched. I felt Eric's character development and initial build-up were the strongest elements of the story. Also, I'm all for tragic endings, but it's hard for the reader to feel any sort of attachment if there's no glimmer of hope. Maybe the most disappointing part of the book was the grammar (constant typos, missing words, poor sentence structure, etc.). I've seen fewer mistakes in novels I have read than I did with this short piece, which is saying something. Despite all of this, I still find Eric to be an entertaining storyteller. I will definitely give him a second chance.
