Yes, it is a drug, and I am opposed to it.

But this is irrelevant.

Eh, in all honesty, i don't like it.

Poorly written, boring subject matter, really bad dialogue, and so on.

I think you need to kill the cliche more than anything. And modernise the language. Your target audience is clearly children- dumb it down. Also, If this is part of a larger novel you are writing, unveiling the demon should be a climax that is built up to.

Just short stories.

This sort of thing:
These form "Team Demon", which is a special force the purpose of which is to fight off evil.
He also created Wingman, Pantheraman, and Antman.
Price Empire (could be just because I know you, but please DON'T call it that)
Power Force Ultra
Best Soldier Harry
Bourgeois Spider (Not a good name for any character in a childrens book. Subtlety would be an asset here)

As well as that, as I said as this is a childrens book the content, plot, etc needs to be complicated enough that the reader doesn't feel patronised while the language needs to be accessible to younger readers.

So he's Santa, then?

I know someone who'll like that. :evil:

Ix, I suggest you redraft it. The subject matter is too wide, and with characters like Plato, the children are going to be lost. The dialogue also needs to be made shorter, so that each character only speaks a line or two. Also, Al Khabir's right. You need to kill the cliché.

Oh, and get rid of the paedophilic remarks while you're there. :p

Thanks, but - I'm still somewhat confused.
Price Empire (could be just because I know you, but please DON'T call it that)


Why not? :?:

Bourgeois Spider (Not a good name for any character in a childrens book. Subtlety would be an asset here)


I rather like the name, but I shall consider changing it.

Good idea. I knew it a flaw - too much simplicity was its
flaw. But I wanted it to be very simple. If it is insultingly simple, though, it
must be changed. I can easily change this without changing part one of my
story.

The language seems okay to me, though.

He, too, is a saint.

Okay, I shall make it less dialogue-driven and put more violence into it.
Children love gore and blood.

Such as? :?:

It's written for little kids but you have damn hard words like Bourgeosie, that's just hard for anyone not familier with it.

To be honest, i havn't read it. You started going on about elephants :roll:

I think Jesse should write a childrens story too, "Freddy the Fascist" or something like that. If i remember correctly he's a pretty awesome writer.

This work is wonderful, your characters will make for a very interesting storyline because you put in Plato and even make the villian a descendance from Adolf Hitler. I suggest you publish this, however please listen to the suggestions given here at PoFo to make it even more successful, overall if I were still a child I would buy the series.

My hypothesis was proved correct. :lol:

I'm humbled - and I have been entertaining writing "A Day in the Life" of a young citizen of the future - how I envision it, at least. Time will tell, eh? I also understand that TROI is writing a story set in a world aligned with Civitas - although, it might be a parody. :lol:
