Looking for a test reader
« on: November 24, 2021, 09:30:05 AM »
I need someone to read a book I have written, which is at the 80% point.

I am looking for critical feedback

It is over 200 pages, will finish around 250 pages give or take, I think.

Its my first fantasy work, so a bit out of the norm for me. I was initially just writing it for my son as a way to share with him, but it's taken on a life all its own and has some potential.

It's called "Thoren." It is fantasy, however it follows biblical lines in a way. It is about a specific period in the bible that is not well known.

It turns some popular concepts on their heads and has some fun with some beliefs we hold. Anyway, if anyone would be interested to help, let me know. Please don't volunteer if you aren't willing to read all of it or to offer honest critique

Thanks!

What kind of time-line are you looking to get the feedback in. I would be willing to give it a shot but not sure how soon I could get it done fir you.

I have no specific timeline, and it is actually changing (growing) almost daily

send it on. literary preferences are pretty subjective on who likes what etc. are you looking for grammar, structure feedback or just, "good or nah"?

Depending on content , I’ve got a house full of readers that are none too stingy on criticism.
