Hey Roan,

I liked it alot it was again frsh to have something not about the JA although there is nothing wrong with that its nice to have something else to read about.

You built the characters nicely a lot of the time people tend to over compensate a lack of story with character building but i think you got it just about right

Can't wait for the next section of it so hurry up and write it :P

edit: for spelling

Thanks for the feedback. I have to admit I was influenced by the wraiths & x-wing stories, which I liked. Also I was resding Dan brown at the time so decided to use short chapters and to switch scenes regularly. I think it can make the story simple to read and much easier to pick up and put down.

Enjoyed playing with the cover art, an idea i got from an old JA member's profile pic, can't recall the name sure she/he was a D'kana.

The stories will hopefully lead Roan to the JA not sure if I'll ever get that far very rarley get time to write.

Hey Roan. Yeah i found this on the belouve website a little while ago now, and i found it an enjoyable read, a well thought out and executed short story. :)

I liked that you managed to flesh out a group of characters well, and that they were not based upon any specific source that i could see, stories about the JA can be good, but it was refreshing to read something so original. The story reminded me in places of the Wraith Squadron star wars books, but it was very original. Can't think of any critisisms of hand, if one occurs to me i'll post here for you.

Was half expecting you to enter the story competition that cropped up a while ago, if you get the second story done in time, you should think about entering the next one!
