- Zachary DugasRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5So to be upfront I am doing this for a review swap, and now that I have gotten that out of the way I am going to be going into the review proper. Now I will be reviewing this based on the RR advanced review categories to keep it all orderly and hopefully constructive for you.
First, up will be my Style score.
Style: 5 out of 5: Dear god this book oozes style, every chapter has an almost surreal quality to it, like it is some sort of lucid dream that may or may not morph into a nightmare at any point in time and I must say I love it, everything is described with this floating style that seems descriptive but also not? idk its hard to describe you just have to read it for yourself.
Grammar: 5 out of 5: its good, especially for RR what more is there to say?
Story: 4.5 out of 5: I have no idea what is going on, we don't have all the answers to what is happening to Henry and that is fine, in fact, I think it adds to the appeal we don't know how he got there, why he is there and it is great, I hope the author keeps feeding us small tidbits but never quite tells us. the pace is slower but this is fine imo as it establishes the world almost as a character and allows us to feel the same way Henry does.
Character: 4 out of 5: We dont know much about Henry, simply how he reacts to the situation he is thrown in, and in that he is a believable character, seeing as his actions are rational and thought out when they need to be and more of a reaction to instinct at other times it makes him feel real and alive, good job!
All in all, I like this novel and will be following it to see how things progress, keep up the good work
