Again, the audio version. Unfortunately, a character named Jock is supposedly Scottish. Listening to the fake Scottish accent is a bit unbearable considering both my parents are Scottish and is a bit distracting. I've heard better fake accents. Otherwise, the premise is beginning to take shape. Would be good as a video rental. Seems to be written for such. Only 1/4 of the way so far. ...
more Again, the audio version. Unfortunately, a character named Jock is supposedly Scottish. Listening to the fake Scottish accent is a bit unbearable considering both my parents are Scottish and is a bit distracting. I've heard better fake accents. Otherwise, the premise is beginning to take shape. Would be good as a video rental. Seems to be written for such. Only 1/4 of the way so far. Update: almost finished and the book sounds like a bad made-for-tv-movie. Maybe after Sophie and Royd pro-create, they can call their offspring 'Stare' just to match the cheesey-ness. Sounds as though the author is pulling in elements from 'Terminator' and such. I don't think there will be much redemption at this point. Finished-->read better. I think my husband would like it, though.
