Athens Ophelia! by Zachary Aneiress

Zachary Aneiress expands the wild and unpredictable adventures of a new-age deity with Athens Ophelia! In this second installment of the Athens Ophelia series, readers are plunged deeper into the supernatural, with demons on the hunt and hissing Collectors at every turn, but they’re also shown the deeply human side of this hero – insecurities, mistakes, and self-doubt. The writing style can only be described as free-form, where traditional grammar and sentence structure are occasionally abandoned. This can lend a sense of authenticity, but there are also many obvious errors that need to be addressed. The descriptive language also needs sharpening, and the more tangential exchanges of dialogue could be slimmed down. While the execution needs work, the bones of this two-part series are strong, and the story is inspiring and creative.
