I will definitely be looking forward to u educating people on the negative influence of those bastards killing all in the name of religion. my 2cents o

I'm not in d habit of reading, due to several factors, but this one.......I made an exception. All day I did nothing but read, it's really intriguing, as u make it sound like u were d all-seeing eyes that witnessed those "things" firsthand. It makes your work unique. Well done!

That was exactly what i thought while reading this story. Its really good but you need to do something on the aspect of Islam and terrorism. You should do more research on the religion before writing in this manner. Anyway nice work.

I thank both of you for the point raised. However, i promise, i did do my homework pretty well before picking up my pen, spent years on that homework too, and this i found.
Islam is not much different from Christianity both in doctrine and content of holy books. Both the Bible & Quean seem to have been coined from the Torah and thus all three have a lot of quotations, chapters, and verse, even characters, and tales, in common [they even have the same number of letters in their names - five!]. Funnily, they all share the same fate, in that there are a thousand variations of each faith and its ideology.
In Christianity, so many 'pastors' have arisen to lead so many astray, but in Islam the case is much worse due to the 'Jihad' factor. Highly intelligent men twist the truth into what they want it to be and feed it the many gullible people looking for some meaning to all the confusion that is life (brainwashing), culture comes to bear and the result is 'a new religious sect'
The Boko Haram is referred to as an 'extremist' Islamic sect because they push all the laws and punishments of your normal Islamic religion to the extreme forms & limits. Their laws and principles bring death and destruction to everyone in their path particularly the 'infidels' even as yours brings peace and enlightenment.... same Islam, same Quran, different doctrine which gives rise to principles, practices, and laws, which arrogant terrorists bend to their will. Please, do go and ask the thousands of Muslim refugees who have seen these things...Perhaps, it is time to do your own homework, eh?

Hello Eric,
Nice to see u again.

This is just book one (which I designated for free) and trust me ...I'm already tired with d load of work and its not even yet published. If I choose, have the time and have d strength, I will create d rest.
it took me 2 months working night and day, after doing d heavy research, to write book one...(editing ongoing). it is what u are reading right now.
How about u manage what u have until its finished then u sweet talk me for more, eh?

All Good bro--

Thanks for d observation man but what u are reading is first draft aimed at guaging the impact of d plot on the audience. It has not undergone any form of edition.
But now that people are 'wowing' the story I know it is very wonderful a plot so now not only will I edit it, I will also enhance it.
One builds a house in stages....the foundation laying, the wall building, roofing, plastering and painting ....and there's is your house!
A book/novel is not much different...it is built in stages. the roofing, plastering and painting of my book are yet to come but it is still presentable.

Got it now, bro?

Well Mr Eze2000 you're a good story teller no doubt but regardless if this story is just right up from your head without any form of editing as you earlier asserted, you've really got to improve on you vocabulary Bro! There're instances you made cheap avoidable grammatical errors which wouldn't be so if you invested much more time into reading of novels of other well known authors; Dean Koontz, Stephen Hunter, Mary Higgins Clarke, Sandra Brown, Ken Follet, Chimamanda a whole lot of others learn from them, they way they fashion out sentences..You Portray Alex the main Protagonist of this book as an all knowing tough motherfucker yet he's caught off guard on little intel details he should be ahead of information bro! Not lagging behind.
Let me give you an instance oon good sentence structure without talking too much..
When Alex was speaking to the Colonel his former CO about the approach of the victims uncle , this is how you put it
"Alex began to talk. He left nothing out, not even the contents and purpose of the small suitcase he carried. When he was done, the colonel was silent for a long moment."
Here's something better
" Alex began talking exhaustively on how he was approached with the proposal of the mission, with no reticence held back. When he was done, the Colonel was both Silent and stunned for a moment"
There's no such thing as "Long Moment" Bro! But you're trying keep up the good work and create room improvement.

Oh, man,
You obviously have a PhD somewhere. unfortunately so many others don't and I prefer to have that 'so many' love me than d few professors there are.
So sorry, but my way of putting the story is better. if u examine the works of universal bestsellers like James Hardly Chase after whom I modeled my writing style, u will find that it is so easy to gasp and enjoy by every one.....now that something!
Going by d way u talk, I would need a dictionary and a bachelor degree in English at least, to understand any book u write.
When a reader has to go running to a dictionary in other to understand your work, he/she usually doesn't enjoy it.....fact.
As for the 'long moment'? It's not much a grammatical error as a thing of d impatient mind where a moment, a second, can take too long....what you see is actually a stroke of masterclass...etc....
"Nooooooo!"
Now here is another 'grammar error' but u know that's actually a scream and not a simple 'no' or a mistake. Did I say so? No I didn't.
The simple reason why everyone cannot be an author, irrespective of their excellence in d English language is 'TALENT', simple. God gives that one out for free!
Lastly, Alex considered himself done with the military for good before d contract came up. HE CARED NOT TO STAY UP-TO-DATE ON ANYTHING Military or political....he was moving on with his life as a civilian. Neither u nor any disgruntled worker will stay up-to-date with the affairs of his old employers against whom they bear a grudge.


Pls, sir, if u do not mind too much, I would love u as friend on whatsapps. You may not get d bang of my 'writing style' but your excellence in English is too good. I could use a consultant in that field, makes things so much easier.
