Going Dark

Painful to read. This book needs some major editing. In fact, I doubt that it was even proofread.

So this was... bad. Not like offensive or anything but just very fanfiction turned in for a creative writing assignment bad. I think I got it for free or cheap and didn't realize that while Hugh Howey gave his blessing for it to be written, he didn't really have anything else to do with the spinoff series. I think there is much better fanfiction for Wool available on A03.

I feel bad giving it such a low rating because I'm sure Christy is a huge fan who was really wants to expand the Wool universe, but I couldn't find anything I can honestly say I liked about this. Flat characters, zero tension, and just bad writing. She uses the phrase “it sounded like her voice had been dipped in sarcasm” at one point. What?
