Mandy Szewczuk's Reviews > The Keeper's Six

While I felt like there was a lot of deep thought and world building that the author had done, the glimpse here was incomplete and therefore sort of silly. The shifts in tone in the characters' speech made the dialogue veer between hotshot modern tongue-in-cheek quips and overdramatic Victorian proclamations, which ultimately made everyone seem very unreal. This novella tried to do a lot, but I think, sadly, it failed at most of it. Maybe if this had been fully fleshed out into a novel it would have worked.
