Short, simple, and could use a lot of work. There wasn’t much flow to it, and often I was confused as to who was speaking. Unless you really like this particular AU and these characters, I’d skip this one.

Didn’t finish this one. Which says a lot since I grabbed it off the low wordcount end of my to read list. Do not recommend. The writing is just, well, fairly bad. Author needs more practice in showing instead of telling
The Enjoyable Morning Of The Sun Bearer by Dismal The Zoner

Good first line, I can believe that’s how Princess Celestia greets each day. I just can’t see Princess Celestia as wanting to stay warm after getting out of bed. I don’t actually see her getting cold short of being encased in solid ice. Ugh, another one that’s not very good. Better than the previous one, but much the same problems. This one was pretty much all passive voice. Or so I think. I really need to get a better grip on passive vs active voice. Anyway, another one that I can’t really recommend. Did finish it though, but only because it was so short.

Not a lot of pony in this story, but that’s kind of the point. Is a interesting story. Might have to steal the basic concept from it for a story of mine. Not that it is wildly original or unique, but it has its own flair. Good story as well. I’d recommend this one. It certainly deserves more views than it’s got, that’s for sure.

This was very funny. The writing style not quite to my taste, but was still worth a read. I’d recommend this one if you want a bit of light comedy.
As always, The Big Master Review List is here: { THE MASTER LIST }
If you know of a text-format reviewer I'm not keeping track of, please let me know and I'll see if they meet the criteria to be assimilated into the list.
If you are an author who wants a more detailed review of a story I've covered feel free to message me. My reviews tend to be fairly light, mostly just reactions to a story right after reading it. I am happy to give a more careful read and reply to anyone who wants more precision and/or feedback.
