Review:
I found this book, overall, to be very vivid. The plot was captivating, but the descriptions we very lengthy and most components of the story seemed unnecessary. The plot was very descriptive and full of detail drew you in at first. The story contained many characters, but there were so many it made the plot hard to follow. The detail was good, but sometimes it made the story very drawn out.
Quote:
"That was it, the last gambit. Bane had failed. It was over. There was only one course of action left. Go down fighting." I feel that this quoteincorporates the essence of the protagonist, Erik Bane. At many points in thebook Bane encounters obstacles that seem insurmountable. Bane always managesto persevere throughout these challenges, even though many of his companionsdo not.

i don't think i'd like this book too much because the whole "zombie" thing doesn't do it for me, but it sounds like it's really action packed. - erica scott
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Lesniak and students,
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool project you have going on here. The Literary Treasure Trove Troll gives it his full approval.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteIt's Nick Kyme, author of Back from the Dead. It's wonderful to see that people are still reading this, my first novel, three years after it was first in print. I'm glad that you found it enjoyable (?) and just wanted to express my appreciation for featuring it on your blog.
Very kind regards,
Nick Kyme
