[Following is a volunteer review of "Masters and Bastards" by Christopher J. Penington.]
Masters and Bastards by Christopher J. Penington is a science fiction novel majorly talking about Andreas Marset.
The seventeen-year-old boy serves in the Poltervaut army. He is described as a man of superintelligence, vigilant and tactful.
Andreas, seen as a bastard, comes from the arpathanian race which is greatly despised by the Iberians who see themselves superior. He is accused of going to bed with the lieutenant wife, which he denies. Is the absence of evidence an evidence of absence? Find out. Due to Andreas’ attractive physique, he is chosen to procreate an heir to the throne through Isabella, the emperor’s daughter with the approval of her father. What are his intentions, and will his plans succeed? After staying in the empire, they would be leaving for war in the Gideon and Rubicon system where Andreas is destined to meet his death. Did he die? Find out the answers to all these questions by reading this amazing novel.
The 500 paged novel transverse the following themes, war, friendship, racism, justice, and leadership. Penington also uses the following styles in his book, suspense, dialogue, and vivid description.
There are several things I liked about the book. First, the book was well-plotted; the author organized the events neatly that I was able to trace. The page cover of the book was also very attractive. This made me salivate for it. What I liked most was the choice of words used, I didn’t have to go back to my dictionary whenever I was reading; they were easy to understand. The dialogue among the characters also made me feel like part of the story. I would also say the book is suitable for all religions.
Despite the likes I also met a number of dislikes, the book was full of profane language, I would say that the book was not also professionally edited as I met a number of grammatical errors.
I choose to rate Masters and Bastards 3 out of 4 stars I never gave it full rating due to the number of grammatical errors and the vulgar language in it, though it’s a great book that deserves full rating only if the author takes it to another round of editing. I would recommend this book to those who love fiction stories and also have an interest in the army. Though it might not be the right book to the children due to the profanity in it.
