Re: Official Review: Transference by B.T. Keaton
The tones are mostly dark in the novel because of how the Curch uses the soul transfer technology, so the effect can be indeed terrifying. Thank your for your appreciation.Laura Bach wrote: ↑09 Feb 2020, 13:37 It's a terrifying idea to think that the Church might punish people by transfering their souls into other bodies. It sounds like a book I have to check out. Thanks for the great review!

In my opinion, B.T. Keaton used thouse foundations very well in developing his novel. Thank you for your appreciation.

I guess B.T. Keaton made that choice because a religious organization made it easier to control a process such as soul transfer among people, without changing the economy as a communist regime would have needed.Shabram22 wrote: ↑11 Feb 2020, 09:53 I wonder why the author chose the church to be the antagonist. I can imagine this story with an evil communist-like character but I'm puzzled why it's the church. Sounds a bit too creepy to me. I'm most likely not the right audience for this book. Great job on your review!
Thank your for your appreciation.

A lot is discovered by the protagonist during the novel, so I'm sure you'll be satisfied. Thank you for your appreciation.

Well, this is science fiction or fantasy, genres that explore ideas that might sound even outrageous. Thank you for your appreciation.

Indeed there are parts that are very dark, stress by the first-person narration. I understand that it's not for everybody. Thank you for your appreciation.Aniza Butt wrote: ↑12 Feb 2020, 08:45 Good to hear that the author adressed important issues like misuse of power. Seems a bit dark for me but am sure the intended audience will like it.
Thank you for an insightful review NetMassimo☺.

The whole plot development seems the result of long reflections on the subject and its possible consequences. Thank you for your appreciation.InStoree wrote: ↑13 Feb 2020, 03:53 I think it's extremely difficult to come up with a totally new, unseen, or untold theme, but the author seems to do an incredible job of refreshing this general subject through his unique writing style using his original imagination. Also, the title is ingeniously designed. It's interesting how the Church plays a key role in this fictional situation. I hope I have the chance to read this book soon. Thank you for your knowledgable review!

The fact that this book also gives one food for thought is what sells it!
