Hi there! I shall review! First of all, I like the way you have the beginning, the very beginning, I mean. Like, how you tell us the time and place. And the quote, they're always cool, too, because you give us an idea of what's to come. Of course, you should give an author for the quote, and you should't give a tag for the time. If it's in 24-hour time, then it should just be 2015, not 20:15, or 20:15 PM. The PM is already there, in the way that it's 8, plus the first half if the day. Anyways, I'm rambling!
“It’s a surprise,” Lilica smiles at her son’s dismayed look. “We’ll be there soon.”
notice the bold.
Lilica laughs. She has a beautiful laugh, soft and sweet.It could make anyone around her feel happy.
Don't tell. Perhaps: Lilica laughs. She has a beautiful laugh, soft and sweet, like a blanket warming you in the middle of winter.
She is beautiful. But that wasn’t why Tyrus had fallen in love with her; she is the sweetest person on the planetCOMMA in his opinion. They had met in college and never drifted apart. Now they were married and had a wonderful son, who matched Lilica’s hair and eyes.
I like how you introduce the characters, in this part. It's almost like we should know them already... Hmmm, perhaps I'm just thinking of your foreword! But I like how you skim over the ditails, because it adds an almost solemn mood to your writing, which had been predisposed by the "The accident that would change their lives would happen in less than five minutes. "
“He’s going to be so excited,” She says quietly, excitement adds and edgesto her voice.
I don't think it makes sense how you put it...
Keeping a pet is different in outer space.
WHAT????!?!?!!! Okay, so this is probably something vital to your plot.... but WTF?
It had been dark like this all day, but that was because of planet Nita’s size.
Okay, so i get what you're trying to say here, and in the next paragraph.... but WTF? First of all, to be scientifically accurate, the sleeping cycles of humans would change over a few hundred years, because we simply need the light to function at best... They would adapt, so double sleep, double day.
Talon can’t take his eyes off the wreck he just caused. This is his first mission and he feels both exhilarated and sickened at this.
Perhaps something like... Talon's heart starts to pump fast; he can't believe something like this could be both sickeing, and fascinating. If this is his first mission, then he can't wait for his next.
They fly over to the hover car, which lays on its roof, and set down next to it.
Okay, so I like this, definately would read on. Either drop a note here or PM me when the chapter 1 gets put up on the site, and I would be happy to help! I get the title thing; adjusting to the dark, because it's a differnet planet... or else the experiments turn the kid blind.
One more thing; Even though your Dialogue is believable, I think you should drop something about a life scan when they're on their mission, so they can tell that everyone in the vihicle is unconscious, because then we know that the kid's not crying...
And how old is the kid? Somehting you should add in there, too. Might be handy to know.
Thanks for writing!
