  Review: Divine Retribuition
  A review of Divine Retribution
  by kumar.u.naresh on 08/25/2012
  Story of a crime fighting cowboy in the future. Where the demons and man walked together. Along with this came a tinge of interplanetary movement. Overall I think that the writer has tried to do too many things at one time. In the end it looked like a visual treat as the story did not have much to offer. it had some obvious twists like Iris turning out to be Victor's spy and...

Overall I think that the writer has tried to do too many things at one time. In the end it looked like a visual treat as the story did not have much to offer. it had some obvious twists like Iris turning out to be Victor's spy and Max dying in the fight. Characters like Nicolai and the vigilance could have been made more. The screenplay had some well etched out action sequences. The ending however was quite different. Overall, it was a novel idea but could have been made more interesting. read

  Review: The Flower Woman
  A review of The Flower Woman

  the concept of the story is pretty decent. liked the approach to it. one thing as a feedback will be to look at the structure of the paragraphs. don't make them disjointed. it breaks the flow. the dialogue that the old lady has with the grave of her husband is pretty moving. though it ends rather abruptly, i thought it was written well. overall a decent read though it did... the concept of the story is pretty decent. liked the approach to it. one thing as a feedback will be to look at the structure of the paragraphs. don't make them disjointed. it breaks the flow.
  
  the dialogue that the old lady has with the grave of her husband is pretty moving. though it ends rather abruptly, i thought it was written well.
  
  overall a decent read though it did not give a lot of opportunity to the story. maybe this could be built upon.
  
  All the best read

  Review: Dr. Towers' Babel
  A review of Dr. Towers' Babel (rev)
  by kumar.u.naresh on 04/04/2011
  I am not sure if this really counts for a short story. pardon its length and it is a decent read. the concept of time-travel and search of god was brought together beautifully. kudos. a brilliant concept. the narration was also very gripping except a few parts when the protagonist drifts into thoughts of Jesse. a few things i observed. the story starts with a regret expressed... I am not sure if this really counts for a short story. pardon its length and it is a decent read. the concept of time-travel and search of god was brought together beautifully. kudos. a brilliant concept. the narration was also very gripping except a few parts when the protagonist drifts into thoughts of Jesse.
  
  a few things i observed. the story starts with a regret expressed by the protagonist of association with Dr. Towers. and throughout the story it was emphasized repeatedly. the ending however was extremely positive. thus a contradiction.
  
  another observation . during this time reversal experience, he was able to notice minute details like the observation made by budding astronomers. with the speed of time reversal, i did not see as to how he was able to observe these minute details (page 37). or actually even make sense of things. probably the pace at which the reversal was happening could be expressed a bit more clearly.
  
  Page 31 when the protagonist went back to the thoughts of Jesse, it became too distracting. it could probably be cut down a bit. run in the back of his mind. also it conflicted with the state of awe he had about the place.
  
  Page 38: "her actions were bread from a desperate, galactic hunger" should it not be 'bred'?
  
  all the best
