Language and style
The novel is written in vital and modern language. Optimum length of sentences and a lot of dialogues make the novel easier to interpret. There is a special and peculiar writing style corresponding the atmosphere of the novel and enriching it. Language of the novel blend seamlessly with its content. Shortfalls include: the manuscript has incorrectly framed sentences (example: “his face represented fear”) and hoar speech pattern (example: “coal-black hair”). The manuscript needs editing.
Advantages of the manuscript
01. Inventive plot. Main plot devices are elaborated. Structurally, the manuscript is developed appropriate to the content and author`s logic.
02. High emotional degree. The conflict is tense, there is a surprise effect.
“Lera looked toward where her partner pointed. Slouching on the soft sofa, an obese creature was sitting. Its size was so huge that his belly tore the shirt and was hanging down his knees. His short little hands were pawing one of the local dancing-girls, and his piggy eyes were trying to fight against swollen eyelids. Now and then, the creature`s rotten mouth wreathed in a token smile.
– And this is the man who is to like us? – Lera pronounced with terror.
Dasha answered nothing. She stared at the monster without blinking; at the monster, on whom their future fate depended.”
“Horsemen turned round. They were indeed chased by creepy creatures. Flying round heads with sharp-toothed jaws and a huge eye on the foreheads. They had coal-black tentacles instead of hair. They were approaching at great speed. Huge eye all along the head and toothed mouth striving to catch the dragon`s tail were already clearly seen.”
“At the last stage, the warden wiped the long sprout and slashed dirty naked torso of the magician. He fell into the mush of bodies. Bony arms of the martyrs were grabbing his new torso. They were sliding on the feces muck. Now, the magician blended into the thousands of desperates. He suffered from itching, burning and pain from hard grips of bony hands. The warden continued to slash tossing bodies with his numerous sprouts. The magician tried to break away, but with every movement he was sticking in brown mess more and more. At some moment Malum remembered the spell by which he had called the creature helped him to fling off eighth circle demon pursuers. The magician made an effort to pronounce the first spell that came into his head. But liquid feces flew into his mouth. The magician threw up again. He brought all his strength and dashed kicked off somebody`s sticky torso. He managed to rise above disgusting sea almost by half. The magician spitted out and loudly cried out:
– Interspherato!”
03. The novel touches on defined layer of issues regarding which the author has personal view; she not only masterly gets it across to readers, but offers them to think over concerned issues by themselves.
04. The author knows how to set the mood, lend credence to a story, illustrate personal ideas with intrigue and likelihood, keeping attention not only to essential moments, but to nuances (there is a reverse of the coin – sometimes there are too many nuances). There is a feeling that the narrator created her own world in every detail in her imagination before sharing it. As a result, when reading, willing reader may easily visualize the images described by the author.
“Suddenly, a dragon flied out from below. Waved by three meters wings, it caught on edge of the steep right below Dasha. The girl bent over the railing to tale a good look at the fairy creature. It yellow eye glanced at her direction. Jagged comb on its head was lowering and rising again. Emerald scales with orange streaks were opalescing with every breath. Surprisingly, but Dasha wasn`t scared, she was rather curious. She stood still, she didn`t want the dragon to waive its membrane wings and fly away. Dasha was too interested to take a closer look at it. Elongated face with wide nostrils, smooth back and long tail ending with a flat tip – all this looked exactly as images drawn by artists in fantasy books.”
“He bent over the edge to size up the dead-end situation, but he was in for a surprise. Along the entire perimeter of uneven edge a resemblance scaffold was strained – tubs in ropes very similar to scaffold, that were going up and down. Multiarmeds sat there constructing the edges of eighth and ninth circles. Besides tubs, huge fat slugs were slowly crawling along uneven walls. They evolved brown sludge spreading over the sides, after which the multiarmeds in tubs used it as a building material. Giant were also hanging on the straps. They hammered polls into stiff ground of the circles by massive hammers.”
“Her attraction was possibly affected by hundreds of candles lit across the huge hall. They created shadows, which were moving in the flickering of flame, breathing life into wall sculptures. Emotions revived and brought out sympathy for stone inhabitants of the walls. One of the fragments depicted a fight between mermaid and fisherman, who caught her in the net.”
05. The text has so-called “hooks”, “baits”, “riddles” creating tense and holding readers attention; they goad curiosity and aid to “draw into” reading.
06. One of the doubtless benefits of the novel is its inner narrative inertia. You can feel some assurance of the author in necessity of this story. Inner impulse of the novel proclaims the author to be skilled.
07. A lot of vivid dialogues, which clearly fit into the imaged created by the auhor.
“– Here, take it, – young man whispered to Dasha offering her his weapon.
– What is it? – asked Dasha in a low voice.
– This is my knife. Just in case. I can`t to use it, – Maxim answered.
– Why do you carry it? – Dasha surprised.
– It gives me confidence, – Maxim whispered.
Dasha smiled.
– Keep it, – the girl replied.”
08. The world of feelings and emotions of the main character, Dasha, is described with filigree, which proclaimed that the author is a great expert in human soul.
“Dasha was moving her hands along the finest strings of the world. She didn`t feel them physically, but every touch brought an emotion or information into her mind. It seemed to her that she is the great brain of omniscience. Secrets of Universe revealed to her, but she couldn`t catch on the whole stream. It was penetrating her without staying. It was the same as Pentium second processor compared with Pentium fourth. Earlier version did not manage to quickly analyze data a user wanted to get. Dasha`s brain featured the same properties. She sensed knowledge in her head and any question asked by her found its answer. But there were too many questions; they were running through her head at a great speed. Many of the answers were ahead of the questions asked. Hence, they gave rise to chaos. Dasha closed her eyes. She understood that it was the time to concentrate. Dasha felt strong power of “The Crow`s Blood” ether streamed through her. Scattered thoughts were abruptly displaced by void, from which came the answer on what is to be done.”
09. Ingenious idea fully covered by the author.
10. The author`s style is lucid, vivid, with inner inertia and potential. The narrator`s intonation dips you into the story creating the mood. The advantage is the author`s observation of stylistic and genre identity without a tendency towards unjustified and artistically unreasonable mix of different styles and genres.
11. Intriguing ending rouses readers` curiosity and prompts them to look forward the story continuation.
