The Visitor

I'm of two minds about this novella. The story wasn't exactly spectacular but it was decent enough and mostly enjoyable. The actual writing, however, left a lot to be desired. I'd be surprised if this was proofread even a single time, because it was littered with grammatical errors, incomplete sentences, confusing prose, and clunky, repetitive language - all of which could have easily been fixed with even the most basic level of editing. While the story wasn't without merit, the actual text was quite trying to read and should have never been allowed into the wild in its current form.

Three stars for the story itself; one for the severe lack of editing. I guess I'll split the difference.
