Review of Beating Death (resubmission)
[Following is a volunteer review of "Beating Death (resubmission)" by Sean O'Banion.]
Sean O’Banion's Beating Death (resubmission) is a non-fictional venture that ventures into the sci-fi and fantasy domains. Within its pages, the book delves into magic, witchcraft, thrilling adventures, and political intrigues. Divided into three parts, this work showcases the author’s distinctive writing style, characterized by humour, raw language, and thought-provoking themes. Several characters in this narrative wield extraordinary powers. In his youth, Robert discovers his ability to fly following an unfortunate incident but opts to keep this power hidden, fearing exploitation. Later, he crosses paths with Jolie, Greta, and Emily, each possessing their unique gifts such as flight, telepathy, healing, and spirit communication. Together, they unite as a team, facing challenges, unravelling mysteries, and confronting formidable adversaries.
The author's depiction of Robert's development throughout the narrative gripped my attention. I found myself resonating with his inner battles and admiring his resilience when confronted with immense challenges. The bonds he forged during his journey were profoundly moving, showcasing the immense potency of human connections amidst adversity. Additionally, the inclusion of supernatural personas like Jolie, Greta, and Emily heightened the story's allure, infusing it with deeper layers of excitement and fascination through their distinct backgrounds and extraordinary abilities.
Their shared struggles against oppression further enriched the book's appeal. Furthermore, I must commend the author for crafting dialogues that felt authentic and intricate, with each character's accent and behaviour contributing significantly to the overall credibility of the narrative. I recommend this book to fantasy and sci-fi enthusiasts. This book intricately weaves supernatural elements and character development, fostering engaging friendships amidst challenging circumstances.
The reason why I do not dislike this book is that, in my view, it is well-written. The initial part, while offering a brief historical overview without remarkable events, effectively lays the groundwork for the subsequent sections. These latter parts present clear progression and development, making it easier for readers to understand and appreciate the narrative. The book was exceptionally well-edited and error-free.
I gave this book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars because of its exceptional qualities. The book's well-crafted narrative, coupled with its adept handling of character growth and clear progression across its parts, significantly contributed to this high rating. Despite the initial section lacking notable events, it effectively laid the groundwork for the subsequent parts, ensuring easier comprehension for readers. Moreover, the inclusion of supernatural elements, compelling character development, and authentic dialogue added depth and intrigue, making it a captivating and well-rounded read deserving of the highest praise.
