O. M. Grey

I'm not going to comment on the story as I couldn't finish reading this piece of shit. The writing was horrendous. My biggest complaint: PICK A TENSE AND STICK WITH IT. There is absolutely no reason to switch tense from one sentence to the next and this happened frequently. (Ex. "A Faint reflection could be explained by a trick of the light, if necessary, but it usually wasn't. After all, everyone is too busy looking at themselves.")

The only time I can think of where switching tense within a book works is if your character is having a flashback, dream or vision of some kind, in which case the text should be separated from the rest and italicized. There are authors who do this very well, but I think it is a more advanced technique best not attempted by people who can't even manage proper grammar. (Ex. "Still, it wasn't so loud that they wouldn't hear a scream...No. Must continue to move slowly." There seems to be a pronoun missing there.)

Additionally, I don't need period dialogue, but I hate a period piece where the characters sound like they belong in a modern high school instead of a 19th century ball room.… (plus d'informations)

Fans of Gail Carriger will LOVE Avalon Revisited. Steamy scenes, plot twists, intriguing characters, and of course fabulous gadgets and a most impressive airship make for a phenomenal Steampunk adventure! Gray weaves English History, Arthurian Legend, Victorian culture and Supernatural beings into an incredible tale that covers romance, deception, bustles, brass fittings and intrigue. This is especially great for those who need a break from complaining Vampires who lament their monsterhood on a continuous basis. Arthur makes no apologies for who he is- and he has a rather more creative back story than any other Vampiric Hero. Pick it up- it's a great read!… (plus d'informations)
