The great reviews this book go, really make me wonder
I am having a real hard time slogging through this book. I am about 80% through and it really isn't getting better. I thought I had a handle on how to interpret the stars in the reviews, but this really has me scratching my head. I love PA books. I read alot of them. The Stand is one of my all time favorites. To compare this to the Stand is ridiculous. Anyone who does so obviously never read the Stand. It does seem like it tries to copy the Stand a little bit. Compare it to Lost. I guess? I watched all of Lost and this does incorporate some of the WORST things about Lost. The editing is good, though. Just not very believable. The other reviewer hit it right on, you just can't visualize the characters because they don't act/talk the way they are portrayed. I really hate to be so negative and the authors do have some talent and I know they enjoy what they do, but 5 stars this is not. I will give it 2. If I change my mind over the next 20% I will change that to 3 stars. Right now I will not be buying the next installment.
