The Devil pulls the Strings | Book Review

★★★

Great Potential

3 Stars | Adult | Fiction | Fantasy | Action | Adventure

​First, I've got to get this off my chest. Why, oh why, do authors think that writing out sound effects is a good thing for the reader? Screeech, Clink, Grind, Clack, Groan...really? We don't need this. A well-written novel will supply sufficient detail for us to envision those sounds without the added visual aid.

Second, the writing was good with the exception of a wrong word used now and again and jumping tenses. That can really mess with the flow of a story. Third, while the story was engaging, there was simply too much jumping around with little character development to for the reader to grasp precisely what was going on.

​The premise was interesting though and with a bit of polishing, this could be a superb read.
