Title: Who edited this book?
Product review: Although Mr. Everett weaves a good story, I found his characters one dimensional and his style of writing annoying. His use of punctuation, particularly exclamation marks, made me wonder if he had an editor at all. At one point I counted 53 exclamation marks in three pages. I felt like the characters were constantly yelling. Although this may seem appropriate at some times, as in battle scenes, it hardly seems necessary in everyday conversation. I never felt like I got to know his characters, and could not tell one army officer from the other. They were not developed at all. His heroine, Julia, was an annoying, bratty teenager with few redeeming qualities. I found this to be a wholly unsatisfying read.
