After The Darkness: Episode One Kindle Edition
Nadia Comani has never seen the sunrise or a real blade of grass. A matter of fact, she’s never been outside Calcane City’s walls and domes where the world is dark and cold and covered with ice and snow. But despite that, Nadia has everything she could ever want: power, privilege, a loving family and most importantly warmth.
But when her family refuses to compromise their values to serve the city’s corrupt elite, everything changes. Nadia is cast down from her pedestal of power onto the trash heap of the lower classes. No longer guaranteed a life of ease, Nadia faces a future of servitude. Branded as powerless and deviant, will Nadia muster the strength to save herself and what remains of her family?

- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2013This is a short dystopian novella that is fast paced and ends in a cliff hanger, as described. The book is hard to describe without really spoiling anything. The basic story is Nadia being separated from her sister and attempting to get out of her current situation so they can be reunited. It is set in the future of a privileged society and everyone else is scrapping to get their tiny piece of it. It doesn't give a lot of back story so you don't really know how she came to be in this situation or too much detail about the place that she currently is. It was fast paced and a quick read that keeps you coming back for more. I really enjoyed it. I was looking for a quick read and have been in a reading slump so this was a nice a spark to get me back reading. I have already read the second in the series and the story builds as you continue on. I bought the rest of the books in the series so I hope they continue to peak my interest
- Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2013I like the story. But it was very short and I see I will be paying .99 for each short epidode. Also needs some editing. I mean this is simple stuff that one read through should catch: for instance, the word "pack" instead of PACT. Also the word "wonder" for WANDER. Unfortunately I have seen this before in other writer's work, the exact same mistakes that anyone with any command of the English language should not be making, and if they do should be able to catch it immediately.
That said I did really like the story, although it is barely enough to begin with. I am not sure I will read more because I really don't like paying even 99 cents for such a short beginning to a story. I would advise the author to make the entire thing available in an "Omnibus" edition. When that is done I may read the rest.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2013Just started to get some inkling of the plot, and ....... the end. Might be a great book, but, what I got for $.99 was not even a whole short story. Not interesting enough to keep paying a dollar for the next installment.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2013The story start off with 2 little girls one is 14 and the other her sister.Nadia tell Milia to leave and hide under her bed but she said no they are there .Who is they? The men who kidnapped them are paid to get some young girls and then bring them to the lady in white.
They are paid good money and then they left, Nadia is brought into a room and then she groom and her hair is cut and then she is put in the room with some other girls and then take a bunk and then go to bed.
The lady in white bring the girl who are in different kind of robes and then the girl have to say a pledge to the sect and then they are line up and then each gown mean different things.
They are slave and had to do what the lady tell them they are to collect coins form the people who are at the party you see the man who kidnapped her and her sister is at the party and then see Nadia.
but were is the little one now one know yet you will love the way the book is well written and you will be glad to make it your book
- Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2013Good story, but very disappointed in the shortness of the piece vs. the cost. I felt cheated. I felt like I was paying for a sample or long chapter per episode.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2012This dystopian short short is descriptive to the point where the metaphors and imagery does slow the pacing of the story. I would recommend that you read this story without distractions and truly let yourself be absorbed by the world the author paints with her images. Not much is known about Nadia's "normal" life in the beginning of the story, as she is abducted along with her sister within the first couple of pages. The situation is bleak for Nadia and the people treat her more like a slave than a princess. For someone who enjoys "darker" stories, I enjoyed the beginning chapters of Nadia's tale. I did notice one missing word from a sentence (72%)- but besides that both the formatting and grammar are good. And as a warning, Episode One does end on a cliffhanger.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2013In a new variation on an old theme, I received this book in a LibraryThing drawing as did the other 100 people who requested it.
This teaser novelette of 40 pages is the story of a dystopian future in which the rich and privileged have grown very rich and very privileged while the rest live out hard-scrabble lives at the bottom trying to stay alive.
The setting here is interesting though very much like a lot of other dystopian futures with large populations. The haves and the have-nots are at each other's throats as you'd expect. Sadly the editing here is very poor and the text is riddled with typos and errors. I don't think this even has the benefit of being able to say it's an advance copy. For such a short work I'm surprised the editing is so poor.
In summary, this tiny book has potential but needs cleaning up. It's also far too short to grab any serious interest as I'm ready to walk away and never think about it again. Many possibilities but none of them realized.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2014I thought I was getting an actual book, not a chapter. Hence, the 1 star... However, I am intrigued. This brief glimpse has piqued my interest.
