All Comments on 'The Knife Cuts Both Ways Ch. 01'

Weird story, but amusing. Interesting character in William. I was almost sad to read of his premature end. Almost.

The geopolitical stuff in there was interesting. I'm always interested to see how people think the future will go.

Oh god, this was unintelligible. It was painful with no direction or reason. Honestly, it sucked and I regret reading it.

So the basis of this one is an easily manipulated MC does the rich dude’s bidding by giving him his wife and he graciously accepts a skank in return????

The writing was ok for a third attempt but the plot just doesn’t work, still it’s the authors fantasy let him have his fun.

I would have liked more detail about William's death and his last moments.

The EUNA details were a bit too much.

More conversation between the husband & wife would have been welcome.

That one was... weird. It's no doubt an interesting take on an old trope-plot, but still mostly weird.

So, the guy had his wife taken from him by a smarter and more powerful man. He couldn't do anything about it because he didn't measure up physically to the security personell, or intellectually to the predator. So, he just went with it while complaining how the smarter man was smarter.

Then things happened and eventually ran down a ranting road that had barely anything to do with the starting plot anymore.

I honestly don't know how to rate this. I feel neither pissed about the glaring incompetence of your MC, nor happy about him ending up with a better woman. I actually couldn't care less about any of these characters...

Interesting!

I dug it. Interesting concept with the wife replacement Madison for Lissy. One might think this as cuckold story, but you worked your way through it that made it passable. Nice job; enjoyed the story!

Original, but sci fi for more than the obvious reason.

Absolute garbage, the MC does _everything_ the rich asshole wants him to, accepts a whore as an instantaneous replacement for his wife (Madison or Brittany), fucks her, then gives her the wives wedding rings. Not sure why you think anyone wants to read about such a pathetic MC but maybe it works for you.

Not bad and different. Some of it was a bit daft though.

Whoa! What a great read! This was a fairly, unique plot, rich guy steal other guys wife, that works for him. Heart breaking to have your wife stolen from you, but rich guy supplied a good replacement. Very interesting story. Great read! Great writing! I highly recommend this story to others! Great effort by writer! Thanks # Buster2.

5 stars isn't enough!

Ugh - Complete series of fantasy plot lines left me unable to buy into the main story arc. Not sure where "Ch. 01" comes from as there is an epilogue and everything? 3*

Do a better job editing your work. This was a total mess.

Ditto on all the other comments. Couldn't have been much of a marriage to swap sluts.

interesting. i was actually hoping/looking for the narrator to achieve something by outsmarting William just once. the victory he did get felt hollow but adequate (in the sense that the passive/aggressive opportunism of it was sadly realistic).

4 STARS. you have great potential. please keep writing.

50 years after he married Lissy. He must be about 75 now. So is he going to get in a spacecraft with warp drive and explore where no man has gone before? I'm so confused at this point.

Great story, I especially liked the typo “Brittany”’ that William said instead of Madison. Also, never marry someone named Madison LOL….. Also enjoyed see all the “FUCK” to emphasize Alan’s mind. Enjoyed William getting his payback. so far I have enjoyed 2 of your stories. Keep writing them. 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Seems to me, if a rich/famous person can get your wife to do that, he did you a favor. He showed you what trash you were married to. Dump her and find another

works so hard in the tags to convince the reader it's not a cuck story, yet that's what we're left with, just under a veneer of bullshit and sci-fi glitter.

Get help. Seriously.

Yeah everything turned out fine. Except in reality William would have been taken out by a conspiracy compromised of the extremely intelligent "third man" scientists. Even his goons wouldn't be able to deal with a well thought out plan to assassinate an evil man. As scientists, that means they'll collect facts, evidence and documentation to support their "experiments" in ridding the earth of a pesky menace.

It was a unique attempt to put a twist on the classic trope, but failed in the attempt. It went well beyond a reasonable suspension of disbelief and the science fiction bits were just a distraction. My suggestion would be to go back and write the story with the ex-Navy Seal as the MC and focus strictly on that part of the story. I'm pretty sure it would end up being a better read than this mess.

An interesting take on the Boss Steals My Wife plot. It probably should have been in the Romance or Science Fiction category, since the marriage was just a plot device that in the end didn't really have much to do with the story. The romance, and the science fiction, were much larger components of the story than the betrayal.

No likeable characters. MC was a pussy, right from the start.

Don’t finish this story. It’s complete with epilogue and all, why chapter 1?

Nice story with a happy ending. Please keep writing and thanks.

Yes, perhaps the story is good triumphs over evil with a sci-fi slant but I just watched the final show of Picard so am good with a little extra spoonful of hope for humanity.

Hope you continue writing.

Turned out wife was a slut. Seducer helped him dump her. Take the deal.

Better than married, with kids, mortgage.

By the way baited breath smells like fish bait. Bated breath is anticipatory. I always crack up when I read it. Unless you meant bad breath?

Nice story!!! Well done!!! 5 stars from here ;)

Nope.

Every entertaining. 5 stars.

I'm trying to decide if it was good or bad that he never forgave William.

Thanks for writing!

Regarding composition, Writers' Workshop aficionados will be satisfied, even well pleased.

Conceptually imaginative, this is essentially a one-off of the "master of the universe" theme with an all-powerful alpha controlling hundreds (if not thousands) of lives--all for the greater good of humanity, of course.

Women are either "powerless" (lacking any "alpha" traits) or by nature greedy manipulative (and easily manipulated) sluts--except Lissy, of course, who's needed to provide the contra-evidence for the "alpha #2" that he came out way ahead in selling his honor and giving his wife Madison away without a fight in return for immense riches and an all-around "superior piece of pussy" named Lissy. But not even Lissy can erase the underlying assumption that women are only good for one thing--unless they're direct genetic descendants of alpha males.

I sound like I'm being critical but I'm not. This was both imaginative and genuinely entertaining...and even mildly erotically arousing for those into the pseudo master/slave genre. So 5 stars Tomh1966. Keep writing.

Great creativity and use of real world developments. Thank you.

AH gee, belongs in Sci-Fi even with the cheating wife, but we know you needed to see lots of scores. A william ego thingy really. Still 4.5 stars for concept, lose .5 for obvious reasons, ie outlines are not stories fill in the blank spaces and try be more descriptive between your stories please. M

Although you started this well with a plot that I thought was going somewhere, it got lost, it turned silly. Sorry

I liked your story very much. Thank you for it not being a worthless Cuck Shit story. Great Imagination! Thanks for another chapter. Going to follow and in hope, you don't stray into the Cuck Shit category! 5 BIG ASS FUCKING HUGE FLAMING NOVA STARS, for the story, Thank you.

Totally ridiculous load of bollocks and why did Maddison change her name to Brittany and then back again. Fucking rubbish

T you for a creative and enjoyable story.

Nice 5*****

Ok but the bitch needs to die.

This is a really really amazing version of the cliche story. No BTB but who cares, he REALLY traded up!

I *always* downgrade my score when an author effs up a name, and in this case Madison became Brittany. It was only once, and only for one sentence, but that's all it takes. It would be more understandable if there were a dozen people to keep track of, but when there's only 4 or 5, it's just sloppy.

A little surprising. I didn't expect to like this that much, but quite frankly, a billionare that "steals" skanks that would trade up in a heartbeat, and gives psychologically evaluated to be great partners in return honestly sounds kind of awesome. It's too bad that he ended up dead, to be honest. It sounded almost like he was an alien and making evreyone's lives better in the long run. 5*

Sorry but this one is just stupid.

Read. It again liked it even more let’s a tongue in cheek story. raised it to 5/5
