    Imagine, Magic

    Tiggs commented on David McLeod's story chapter in Imagine, Magic

    I'm just beginning to understand the money, farthings and florins are the wrong way round compared with Earth. A florin was 2 shillings and a farthing was a 1/4 penny in old money. The school should be spelt Eton. Really great story though - in fact the whole series is something I can't put down.

    Really no need to put the disclaimers on. Sorry forgetting you like in USA. Great story so far!

    I enjoyed this story very much. I really liked how the author kept the plot simple and believable and didn't use complex made up unpronounceable names.

    Chapter 11

    Tiggs commented on Dolores Esteban's story chapter in Chapter 11

    I am enjoying this story so far but am curious about one thing: Why was it necessary to mix up the Kings of France like this - it would have been just as easy to use the right names and dates?

    Chapter 5

    Tiggs commented on Dolores Esteban's story chapter in Chapter 5

    Just a technical point - you don't drive through the channel tunnel. All cars go on trains. Enjoying the story so far.

    I'm a bit breathless having read the last 5 chapters. Good action fight scenes - really quite excellent twists. I'm going to have to go back now and read it properly so that I can understand what went on. I'm sure there could have been more by way of explanation included an I'm not sure that the continuity is all correct. Never mind though, a good read as it is.

    I gave up on this story a while ago - it was just too complicated and fragmented. But I came back to it and having scanned through from chapter 9 again it makes more sense now. I think it needs to be read more slowly than many others of this genre. I particularly like the last line of this chapter.

    Ah, good - it begins to make some sense now.

    I was very confused by this one - was he and the elemental making love while someone watched or what? The use of the Yiddish vernacular bought me to a sudden stop. Whereas the rest (of the prose) could simply translate from this reality to ours the specific implication of Yiddish implies a religious structure transference between the two for which there has been no other evidence so far.

    Too many characters too quickly - doing my head in now.

    Maybe the splits in the multi-story lines are a little on the short side, but I'm still intrigued.

    So we start and learn about a few new concepts and realities in a new world. Quite well written so far, a little more physical description of the characters might have been useful at this stage.
