Summary: Made me regret my literacy
Comment: I wasn't going to write a review on this, but when I noticed that this piece of garbage had 4 stars on it, I had to follow my conscience and warn people away.
There isn't one good moment in this book. I enjoyed the graphic novel, but the author's rendition here is mind-bogglingly horrible. I actually finished it to the end, which proved to be more hazardous to my brain cells than an all-week drinking binge, simply because I couldn't wrap myself around how genuinely awful it was. "Cringe" is an incredibly apt word to use in describing the process of reading this book. The dialogue was extremely bad, but the descriptions were worse. Honestly, if the subject matter didn't place it in the adult age range, the writing would have convinced me that this was intended for 5 year olds. The whole book feels like the author has nothing useful to contribute, and is simply making his characters emulate his favorite 2 dimensional TV shows. I was embarrassed to be reading this book. Embarrassed for myself, for the author who wrote it, the other people that have read the book, the publishers of the book, the other books that shared space with it in the bookstore, etc.
This is a painful, painful book to read. Please, don't make the same mistake I made in buying it. I'm done for, but you can move on, move on right past this book and pick up something good. Honestly, you could close your eyes in a book store and randomly point, and be guaranteed that what you come up with would be better than this trash.

Summary: best fiction yet
Comment: i think that Rising Stars: Ten Years After is the best fictional book i have read yet.(other than the first Rising Stars book) this book keeps me on the edge of my seat. J.M.S. is a very good fiction writer. After I finish this book and the last one of the the trilogy, I want to read other books of his.
