Okay, first off: JACK IS AWESOME IN THIS. He's all CAPABLE and GUN-TOTIN' and just, well, Jack. So there's that. The down side is that the story is really kind of... well, it feels like they've got all this plot, they've got the concept and everything, and it's all well thought-out, but when it comes to actually writing about it, he's just not bothered to think THAT part through. The way the people talk about fiction and reality and stuff, it's so cliched, it's like they're only talking so you can see that omg fiction is bad lol :) and I wasn't convinced for a moment. Plus, and this isn't unique to this one, Rose is a total Mary Sue. There's a geek (SEE WHAT I MEAN? That's the official term for people who INDULGE IN DREAMS AND SWAP COMIC BOOKS AND STUFF, geek :|) who's practically in love with her, rhapsodizing about her golden locks and courage and whatnot. I always feel a bit let-down by the lack of emotional depth in these books, but I expect to, so I can't complain about that. It's not bad bad, especially in the last third when it gets quite interesting and FAST PACED. It's a bit of a drag up until there, though.
