It's an author's job to tell a story and Johan Minto tells a good tale but the author has been badly let down by the lack of adequate proof-reading or copy-editing. The text is littered with spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, apostrophes where they shouldn't be and absent where they're needed. Words are misused and sentences tumble into each other without benefit of punctuation. This isn't just the odd mistake – few books are completely free of them – but I can't recollect a page without mistakes and most had several. I was pulled out of the story so many times that it became annoying when I had to reread simply to try and understand the sense of what was being said. It could – and should – have been so much better.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag. We also have a review of Minto's [[The Heliopolis Scrolls by Johan Minto|The Heliopolis Scrolls]].
