Although there are many errors in the book I still think the plotting of the book is intriguing. It's a possible future scenario. I also like the cover of the book, it's ominous and gripping. The book is good for a nerd, someone interested in the future of the world in relation to modern technology. It's a good book.

The book gets a 3 out of 4 rating from me because there are a number of errors in the book. However I found the title and cover to be in tandem with each other, the readers minds anticipates a captivating and intriguing reading experience from there.

Aside from the fact that the book contains a whole lot of errors, I do not like the entire storyline, the cover is awesome though, but i will still give it a rating of 3 out of 4 stars.

The plot is amazing and keeps one in suspense. The only issue is editing errors but these can be easily resolved. I would rate the book 3 out of 4 stars

From what I have read so far I'm impressed by the natural flow of the writing in this post-apocalyptic genre book.
The scenario of well intended medical technology progressing beyond control is frightening, all the more because it could be a warning about the future.
The errors are causing me to re-read sections to understand whats going on but overall I'm still more impressed than I anticipated because the plot is complex. I will read on.......

Although the plot is good, the number of errors including using the wrong name for characters made me decide to give this book a rating of 1 out of 4 stars. Having to second guess which character was speaking made this book a nightmare for me to read. A general proofreading would have eliminated many of the errors. The cover and title are what enticed me to read this book.

I honestly did not care for this book. There was so much profanity throughout the book and it felt completely unnecessary. Unfortunately, I did not find any of the characters to be very likeable. Actually, they were all really annoying to me. I don't read too many books set in the future, and this one does not stand as one of my favorites. I wish I had better things to say about it, but that's just how it was for me.

Following the trend as I observed same, the errors in the book are a little disturbing so it has affecting my rating for the book. But if that was ignored, I would say that a tremendous job was don't by the author. As I am a reviewer, I cannot overlook errors therefore I am giving this book three out of four stars.

Watchdogs Abnormal beginning by Mike L Junior is a story that relates to the uncertainty of the future that can be disastrous. The errors in the book are enough to reduce the enjoyment one intends to derive from it. The cover of the book is captivating but a little scary to me and in a way depicts the title of the book.

Everybody seems to be irked about the astonishing errors in the book, and so do I. The post-apocalyptic theme set in the future is, ofcourse, interesting. However, the amount of profanities in the book... Well, a bummer. Enjoying read but it was a bummer, alright.

Exactly how I felt! It was okay at first but it increasingly got annoying and became unbearable for me to read, but the descriptions of the monsters were sweet haha.

It's a really easy read, the story flows quite authentically and the narration doesn't feel forced. However, the editorial errors bothered me quite a bit. If not for those I would have rated it maybe a 3 out of 4 stars but it's super hard to follow the story when there are so many errors so it's a bit of a 50/50 for me. Overall though, I think it is an interesting plot and seems very promising and suited for teenagers.

This book's storyline is quite fascinating. It's quite unfortunate that it had a lot of editing issues. I love the book's cover and title, it before the book well.
