Story Title: Eye of Raven

Author: Pararae

Reviewed by: Tammy

Title - 5/5 – Eye of Raven as a title sure does sound very interesting. It brings out the impact of the unknown, of course, just by the title itself and from what I can see from the atmosphere, it seems dark yet very fashionable. I although wondered of whether you have missed a word ‘the’ in there. But I suppose it is one of your flairs.


Appearance - 5/5 – I must say, the appearance and the organization of this fic is very decent. The poster or the heading really brought our more interest in my eyes. The bold colours and the choice of the images completely made the whole thing pop out from different prospects. I am very impressed.


Forewords - 8/10 – since this wasn’t one of those normal winglin accounts, I couldn’t tell whereabouts the forewords was. But then I’m just going to take the first part as the forewords. It is very detailed and you have added very crucial notes for the readers benefit. It shows that you have not only thought of the content, but you have also thought of the readers. Well done.


Storyline - 13/15 – The storyline completely blends in with the background of the whole story and it is very good! There is the mixture of thrill and action and a little bit of horror at times. It is one very engaging story and I wish you to keep up the great ideas.


Story Flow - 13/15 – The flow is smooth, everything was explained in detail and the actions were in depth. I just a got a little confused at times, nonetheless, everything was understandable and up to a great standard.


Character Development - 13/15 – you have shown well the character of Raven. She is a very bold, strong young woman who is up to anything, danger and killing and all that stuff. You have portrayed the other character well also, but I just thought that there were way too many characters for me to not get confused. Maybe you could’ve described other characters ever further so that I would know of what they are, it is better for me to imagine them not just physically but also personality wise.


Descriptions - 10/10 – as I have said before, everything is written in depth and full in description. Kudos to you.


Correct Spelling/Grammar - 4/5 – the spelling is great as I did not see much mistakes in there, but as for the grammar, I have seen a few. I’m sure you have realized this through the other reviews you have been given, but I still just want to point it out to you for a better turnout for the other fics.

Keeping Interest - 10/10 – you have sure kept my interest into reading this fic, hence the fact that it took a while for me to do this review. Although it is not yet finished, I do hope to see the upcoming ones.


Ending - 3/5 – I can’t give you a proper grade on this one as it is not yet finished because it says ‘to be continued’ but you have sure done well through the cliff-hanger part.
Bonus Points - 5/5

Total - 89/100
