A Review from "The Iron Bank of BraavosOpen in new Window.!


Hi Jeffhans

My name is Lyn, I am one of the sly foxes.

Title: Minds per square mile

First Impression: Interesting concept in the description so I decided to keep reading.

What needs your attention:
1." Gravtrains, ,Haulageways and Railgun launched cargo shafts on took up a few million square miles leaving orders of magnitude" launched cargo shafts on... but there's no transition tuck up a few million. The sentence needs clarifying.
2. You have a lot of long sentences joined by and that slow the pacing in your story. I don't know if you're familiar with Joy Author Icon she has an excellent piece on pacing that you might find helpful. I've included it for you.

Pacing Open in new Window. (13+)
Pacing is manipulating the storytime to give the story its flow.

What part I liked best: Instant updating eliminating the middle man, kudos. I think having immediate access to every mind that has existed would be awesome. Having an extraordinary mind would be fascinating in your world.

Overall impression: I found this brief dive into sci-fi interesting but it does need help with pacing. If we're going to moving thru the speed of light than the pacing in the story should also reflect that.
The story has potential just needs a bit of tweaking. I hope you do check out Joy's article on pacing.
