So here we are, the last chapter of this literary nightmare given life by a dippy author and physical form by a hapless publisher. And having given it some careful thought, I have to say this book isn’t better or … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 25

Posted on 08/02/2012 by vivisector

Only one more chapter after this and we’re done. And once this is over, I seriously doubt I’m not sure I’m ever going to return to Robson’s world. As rich as it is with bad writing, it’s too confusing. Some … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 24

Posted on 07/31/2012 by vivisector

We’re still with Lila in this chapter. Yet here’s where I figured Robson would want to switch over to Zal and have a chapter from his perspective. Maybe start from when the other elves drugged him and painted runes on … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 23

Posted on 07/29/2012 by vivisector

I’d like to take a moment to say that I don’t hate the concept of magic and technology in the same story. It has to be done well though and Robson hasn’t done it poorly enough to be merely incompetent. … Continue reading →

So, Zal and Lila have just had their reunion and Lila is basically butter in his arms. Will they do the sensible thing and make good their escape or will they dick around? Well it’s been a few hours since … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 21

Posted on 07/25/2012 by vivisector

When we last left Lila, she was just sitting down to dinner. When we rejoin her, she’s just finishing up her meal. Thanks for maintaining continuity, Robson. If we’d started off this chapter and Lila had been waterskiing my face … Continue reading →

So, while Lila is getting marched to her holding cell or a city bus or wherever the elves are taking her, she starts asking Barry questions. Because the best time to exposit is right before you’re about to get killed … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 19

Posted on 07/21/2012 by vivisector

So I know now that Robson hates consistency. Maybe a member of the tribe of Order once pillaged her village and now she’s on a quest to stamp it out. I say this because we rejoin Zal for the second … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 18

Posted on 07/19/2012 by vivisector

So why even make Lila a cyborg at all? That’s something that’s been nibbling at me and making me wonder. Sure there are some things Lila’s done so far that a regular person couldn’t like fly or lock up because … Continue reading →

Keeping It Real Chapter 17

Posted on 07/17/2012 by vivisector

Maybe I’m wrong about this book. Maybe the whole point isn’t to tell a story. Robson could have just wanted to sow as much confusion as possible. If so, she’s done a remarkable job. Robson is constantly filling in little … Continue reading →
