Damn, man. Just ... damn.
That was an event I don't think anyone saw coming, but 'Broken Chains' was a big clue, now that I've read it. Very well done and completely blew my mind with a metaphorical bazooka to the face. Just what a story should be. Keep it up, man. Loving this story.
Not being a fan of horror, I did not like this at all. I'll keep reading the series because I love your writing. This was also boring because there was no fun sex, just that twisted horror stuff. Not sure I like where this story is going, but I can't stop reading it now. Not knowing the ending would drive me nuts, lol.
I'm totally confused and didn't understand half of that. Star Wars I get. Xenomorphs I get. The love craftian cthulhu stuff I like. This was just wierd for me. And the cliff hanger was just wrong. 5 stars nonetheless. I hope this is leading up to something.
@Ramen4life: The horror was from the Hellraiser movie series. While I don't like bloody horror, I do appreciate intellectual horror. The Outer Limits frequently had this kind of horror.
I Liked the use of the Kiai-Jutsu by Pinhead. [Or is it Kaia-Jutsu?] Now, who trained her? Chthon [Nightwind] taught Anatari Baharr [also Nightwind] who trained Ghostfire and Morelen. Has Morelen come a bad end? Or will Ghostfire come to a bad place in his personal future?
I could see another crossover that can use it: Dune. The Bene Gesserit have The Voice. They could even bring their worms into the crossover.
Looking forward to the next installment.
For the most part it was an okay read. Then the part we're you used the creatures from Hellraiser was a big shock. Never have I seen the movie's of it and don't want to. But I'm glad he saved his former lover. Now let's see how things go from here.
Love that you are teasing some Iron Rain story elements into this. Seems like Booker may be absorbing Nick's memories. Just wish I knew what story nick dies in a plane crash because I would love to read that one.
Overall I enjoyed it however you introduced some major continuity errors. Booker had to seperate Ghost and Katria so NPCs would not be calling him
Ghostfire nor would he have abilities such as double dragon and the tongue while he was playing as Katria. Also Aoki and Kyanna fairly religiously stuck to using Katria to refer to Booker. Why do they suddenly start calling him Ghost?
