What is your opinion?

Wouldn't want to cross that Sawney

"This story was truly gripping from start to finish. The way the author used Scottish dialect throughout the novel really helped to put you in he in the place where it was all happening. Every character was well described and thought out. How they all fitted together really worked and loved how the relationships developed all the time. How the author kept the appearances of the Bean family hidden was really intriguing and then when their faces were finally revealed, the way it was described was perfect. The description of the dismembered limbs floating in the water and the way the Bean family ripped their victims apart really made my stomach churn. Overall this novel was terribly thrilling and I loved every sentence of it. Congratulations on such a fabulous story!"

Amazing writing!

"The Grisly Tale Of Sawney Bean really grabbed me and I read until it was finished, couldn't stop. I loved it. The effort in creating realistic setting descriptions and slang that you put into writing it certainly paid off. It was great! I have always been fascinated with the history of Europe and also am really into the horror and adventure. So this really intrigued me the idea of cannibals besetting a small town. You brought the old world and all its mystery and suspense to life...."

"The story, pacing, characters, and style was good. However the punctuation mistakes really threw me off. Other than that though the actual story is solid."

Fun concept, nicely written!

"I think the strongest part of this story is the narrative voices of the two characters with POV as well as the dialogue within the story. I felt that the dialogue was very realistic to the setting and the narrative voices were very distinct and clear. The only issue I had was near the end there were a lot of typos. For example: floor vs ground (since they are outside, it's posture/it's hands vs its posture/its hands, form their hands vs from their hands It did take me out of the story a bit. But otherwise, very intriguing!! I can't wait for the next chapters to find out more about the cannibals etc"
