Smashwords book reviews by E L Russell

Sea Cutter: Book I in The Chronicles of Nathaniel Childe on Sep. 27, 2011

I am writing this review on behalf of my grandchildren. I downloaded Sea Cutter: Book I in the Chronicles of Nathaniel Childe on my iPad and let the boys take turns reading it while we babysat. The boys are 9 and 12 years old. I wanted to have them write the review on their own but they thought that was too much like school. I was able to get a ‘high-five’ from the 9-year old who claims that’s the same as 5-stars. The older, more sophisticated 12-year-old grandson gave it a ‘thumbs-up’. I was able to learn from his younger brother that ‘thumbs-up’ was a cooler way of giving a ‘high-five’. I had some thoughts on this and felt that since the iPad is loaded with distracting games and my wife and I observed the boys reading the book it would be okay to report on their reactions. However, when the request to babysit this weekend came with a question, “Tell pop-pop to let us read Book II.” That’s the endorsement I wish I had for my work.

I really like what you can accomplish in so short a space with your stories. Your plot left me hoping this was just the first chapter. Great images. Rood read - I highly recommend it.
