Unchained

Short, but sweet? A farmers wife should now,  you reap what you sow😇😇

It's a dark tale that comes with a trigger warning of violence for a reason. I found it difficult to read, but that's how I am. 

The story does teach a lesson and does it in an undisputed way. 

Even though this was not the type of story I normally read, you should be proud of being a Secret Author. 

Not sure what i think about this story. It's dark and violent, and i understand why.  While the idea is good and worthy, I think it felt rushed. This deserved more time to develop the characters and the world they live in properly.

I don’t get this story. It is probably my fault but there isn’t time to develop things before the horrifying, and well-written, climax.   A great idea that doesn’t quite come off, for me.

A must read of how 1 young guy and his mentor were treated by so called God fearing people. Wish I  could have gave it more stars!

Read it and the title will then make sense. Discover Dashel, a youth ostracized in so many ways, it's a miracle he's still alive. His mentor Tom had a hand to play in keeping them concealed and safe. What happens when their truth is uncovered? 

Much like the tales and lessons of old, whose purpose was ingraining morality, this story invokes age old dilemmas. How can you ascribe to a belief system/faith yet still have unbounded hate in your heart and soul? 

Then how many time can you beat, abuse, and cast out those who aren't like you before the other cheek turns...and it ain't pretty?

An interesting and compelling story that takes place in an alternative universe.  Two healers, riding in a horse-drawn cart, are stopped and asked by a man to help his wife, who has been ill for several days.  Nearly as soon as this task has been completed, things begin to go terribly awry.  What happens and how will it be handled?  You'll have to read this story to find out.   

Wow what a powerful story, I would advice caution if you find violence and potential acts of torture likely to upset you.

This is a story of hate and persecution of a young man, Dashel who is considered to be different.

You really need this story if you want to find out more about Dashel.

World building here is perfectly spaced. No info-dumps to be found, and the details are spaced evenly. Follow Dashel and Tom on their journey to heal the ill. 

But they must be careful. Not all will be grateful to their ways...

A very intriguing dark tale of betrayal and revenge.  I could picture this as one of the Canterbury Tales if Geoffrey Chaucer were a modern writer.  A well told story that feels like an unusual, divergent form of a morality play.   Very worth the read.  Beware, there is some very violent and disturbing imagery.

A simplistic tale of betrayal and retribution which lacks development and description. The writing is rather below average as if written by someone for whom English is not their first language. The idea was good but the execution left something to be desired.
