Book Reviews of Season of the Machete
Book Review: Why did I read this again?
Summary: 1 Stars
Shall we try to find the good things with this book. Let me see..... That is a very good question. The characters are lame and 2D. the plot is not thought out in the least and everything in general is just bad. The only possibly good thing is that you never know who to trust or ho not to trust, which was what the character's were feeling. I could give numerous examples of how the story was bad but I would prefer not to bore you will details (and it would give quite a few spoilers). The ending left way too many holes that were never filled and questions unanswered. Let's just say this is possibly my new worst book ever read.
Besides just generally bad writing, this book bordered on the edge of sacrilege. Creating a new virgin Mary and savior of the people (especially when the author only addresses one of the prophesies) was just disgusting. (And the Catholic church is the only one that responses to this possibility and sends people to investigate. Christian, Baptist, Lutheran and all other religions are not even mentioned.) Also, there are two sex scenes.
With perhaps a year of editing, this book could be publishable (with the sacrilegious part) but even as a book without religion, it was still lousy.
