Query: Uneven writing

The plot's not bad. Most of the writing is adequate, but with occasional lapses. It's full of repeated single word sentences "Hist.", "List.", and sometimes "Hie.", clumsy archaisms, and plain bad writing. For instance, on pages 32 (of the ominbus volume) we find"His vitals turned."and on the next page,"Tek feinted clumsily twice, three times with her horn, but missed each time." (she confuses feint with lunge in several places)The Amazon blurb says "reading level: ages 9-12". 9-12 year olds probably won't mind, but I don't recommend it for adults.
