Luke, plagued by blackouts since a child, awakens in a room with a headless corpse. He escapes down a fire ladder and is led into a building owned by another one of the characters, Jonathan.

Jonathan, a millionaire who owns the building, opens his bedroom curtains that morning to find it's raining dead birds. When he arrives at work, he finds that his building completely deserted.

A father and daughter, on their way to a job interview, find an empty city and a disturbing vision of their dead bodies. They discover that the address given for the interview is the building owned by Jonathan.

Eddie, a homeless man, follows the other characters. Driven by his curiosity, he enters the building and becomes trapped in an elevator.

Each character experiences unique and disturbing challenges that they must overcome as they are lured up to the 11th floor of the Koenig building.

What awaits them in the building and up on the 11th floor? Will they be able to find the answers and help they have been seeking?

5,0 su 5 stelle Suspensefull. Twists. Lucid Dreaming

What a great novellete for anyone with an imagination! I would recommend it to just about anyone.

Whether you're a Lucid Dreamer yourself, or you just enjoy a Suspenseful Thrill, this book taps into the Unknown and will keep you on your toes.

You're definitely going to want to read the sequel promptly following this one. It reads with the vividness of a good movie. I very much enjoyed this book!

4,0 su 5 stelle A suspenseful tale but could use some editing
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 31 agosto 2012

In general this story has an interesting premise and is suspenseful enough to hold the reader's attention. And I was definitely interested in following it through to the end. The story would benefit from some editing though. I recognize that a novella will have limited content vs. a full-length novel but I would have preferred some additional character development. The characters as written evoke little empathy, despite the horrors they're experiencing. In addition, there's no real justification as to why they were chosen and the choice of the young girl makes no real sense. Also, the dialogue seems a bit forced and unnatural. The conversation between father and daughter should flow easily but as written they seem uncomfortable with each other. Finally, I see some reviewers have suggested the story is set up for a sequel. I can't imagine that will happen as once you understand what's happening there's no more suspense. I think a sequel would be a large mistake.

All this being said, this is a suspenseful tale and to give it only three stars would be a disservice. But I'd strongly suggest some editing to take it to the next level.

3,0 su 5 stelle interesting premise...
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 6 maggio 2012

This is an interesting take on soul catchers. Novel approach. The story itself is one that provoked thought initially. It grabbed initially as well. That is all good. The character development was good as well. And that is that.

The story did drag in a chapter or two with too much extraneous, editorilized detail that did not drive the story, nor develop the character to which it applied. For instance, "she didn't really even need to wear panty -hose." Ummmm ...just for her legs being long? That type comment is usually stated relating to skin tone (nice tan). But, somehow this editorilization was supposed to flesh out Tina. Though I am uncertain why/how. There is word inflation editorilization such as this throughout.

Punctuation is very poor. If a writer is going to use HE/SHE ASKED as a tag line, they need to use a ? inside the dialogue quotes preceeding. Not a comma. Same with exclaimed phrases, an ! is used NOT a comma. There are run on sentences and sentence fragments. Prepositional phrases require punction as well, but seem to be overlooked in this work.

When only two people are talking (for instance, say, in a car), it is unnecessary to tell us each dialogue exchange who said what. The pronoun HE/SHE can be used if the writer feels we cannot figure out who is what in a two person conversation.

There are tense switches within paragraphs.

The story arc was not a developed premise in the sense that it was a flowing process of revelation to a twist or a conclusion scene or book wise. It seemed as if it was going to be that way at first. Then, after a bit, the story just became a run to the finish line trying to see just how many bad events can happen to one person /group of people. It was like watching granny cook. She never measured, she did not follow a receipe. Sometimes she just tossed in whatever was handy or came to her mind at the moment. This book is like that creation of granny's. A bunch of things happening helter -skelter to some unrelated people that have only the "catchers" in common - until they all meet up at "catcher central " for the conclusion. It is like a Halloween type movie - details with no depth. It did not show as a "slasher" or "slice and dice" - it was in mystery-thriller. No mystery, no thriller.

There are detail conflicts - one example: he opens the window an inch to listen out, then goes on to climb out without opening it further. Another : Tina talks to her mother in her introduction chapter. Yet, none of the characters talk to anyone outside those like them. The writer knows (as do the other readers) what is meant here, but to exactly state it gives a spoiler. Additionally, the data read in the paper at the end conflicts. If there were the three of them home (Tina, mom and dad) why were only two mentioned in article? That stymies...

The book needs a good editing job and some things ironed out to be a good read. ALTHOUGH it can be said, this would be a GREAT episode of Twilight Zone or similar. If the author were to write movies this would probably be one for slasher lover's to see. Just does not meet this reader's idea of written works - regardless of genre.

5,0 su 5 stelle The 11th Floor
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 3 maggio 2012
Acquisto verificato
This isn't a long story - I read it in one sitting - but it has a lot crammed in. There's plenty of action, lots of scares, a good variety of characters and an original storyline. It's a real page turner - I couldn't wait to find out what was going on, how the people got to be in the deserted town and what was waiting on the 11th floor for them. Some of the situations the people found themselves in were truly creepy - I could imagine this being made into a film/tv series quite easily.

My only disappointment was with the ending. After really rooting for these people all the way through, I wanted it to be something much more mysterious and/or dynamic than it actually was. Still worth a read though, and the ending doesn't stop the rest of the book being excellent. Would definitely read more from this author - hopefully a full length novel?
