The only thing I can say in it's favor is that its free.
I had a very hard time getting through this. At first it was mainly the writing style turning me off. Characters are constantly rehashing things they both know to spell it out for the reader. As the story went on I discovered no character development to speak of. While I don't expect much from a first novel in the way of character growth, I do expect the writer to make me cheer for the hero or heroine. I couldn't. I spent half the book hoping that the buses that Marla hated so much would run her over. The characters and their relationships to one another are shallow and uninteresting. The only character I felt any sympathy for was the ensnared snake god and he's declared Marla his mortal enemy.
While I hope for the author's sake that he improves by the second, I won't be picking it up.Buy Blood Engines (Marla Mason, Book 1)!
