Description

Tomlee J. Wallace is a young man who, along with a few accomplices, attempts to rob the Lucasta Bank for some quick coin. As time goes on, however, he begins to uncover the real reasons behind the robbery that he himself was a part of.

This is my first attempt at writing a story, so if you decide to leave a rating, please tell me what I need to work on. I'm always looking for ways to improve my writing. Also, I'm more of a casual writer so I don't have an update schedule. Hope you enjoy!

    For all intents and purposes this is too soon to leave a review on a story, but as I have a soft spot for well written sci-fi and am interested in where this story will go, I'll write one anyway.
    STYLE:
    The text flows really well and is an enjoyable to read. We haven't encountered any info dumps that would bog the story down.
    The author is doing well on this aspect. Style normally stays consistent if you have a good idea where the story is going.
    Story:
    The story has a lot of potential. Not much is known for now but I am enjoying the mystery aspect of it. When something isn't what it seems...
    GRAMMAR:
    Has the literacy of a native speaker, which I am not, so no noticable mistakes in the first 4 chapters.
    Characters:
    I'd say that the characters that we did meet have distinct personalities and seem unique. The conversations don't seem wooden and flow properly. The author has many pools from which to draw new characters from (slums, city for now).
    TLDR: Well written first 4 chapters with endless potential for the future. Characterization is believable.
    The review is mostly here to encourage the author to keep writing :)
