I like what I've read: you've gone straight into the action, and there is no grating infodumps here. The use of dialogue is skilled, and I have yet to pick up any flaws in it, and the central premise is intriguing. In short, I want to read more, and that's a hard thing for most genre books, nowadays, since I've basically glutted on them for some time.

If you check out my page, I have chapter 1 of my story posted (which reads like a short story as its more of a setting setter)

Shadow over Headquarters: inspired by Shades of Darkness


 I hope you do not mind by I copied and pasted it into a Word Doc for my easy reading. If this is not ok let me know and I will get rid of it ASAP.

Well thank you, like I said its a rough draft, so thinks may still change here and there. 5 more days till the deadline and here I am trying to distract myself in anyway possible! I've got a good chunk of words left to go :/
