Another painful DNF

Lichgates  - S.M. Boyce

This book, it sounds really good on the blurb. There are some good concepts but its all buried under terrible amateurish writing and awkward dialogue.

 

The characters aren't well defined, the story could be good but even that is all over the place, there are info dumps instead of the reader discovering the world as we go. It' kind of a disappointment, I was expecting something that would blow me away. 

 

You know what makes me saddest? If this book had gone through an editor and then a rewrite and then an editor again something with shape and substance could have come out of it because the concept itself its not half bad.
