4.0
This is the first episode in a rather long serial. As such, most of the word count is dedicated to introducing the main character Kal, and setting up the main plot line.
There is a short prologue before the main episode, but it isn’t clear what it has to do with the main storyline. I suspect the meaning will not really become clear until much farther along in the series, which gives a nice bit of suspense and something to look forward to right off the bat.
The main story centers around Kal, a young man from the earth of the future. Kal has been trapped, alone, on an empty world, for the last four years. However, he now has found a way to escape, by using Nano-technology to travel to other universes. A couple of characters from the prologue pay him a visit. I think more about this visit will become clear later.
The author throws around a lot of terms that the reader may not be familiar with, but the meaning becomes clear as you read farther on.
The writing is crisp and clean. The descriptions, especially Kal’s exploration of the metaxia (space between universes) is detailed and engaging.
My only disappointment with this episode is that it ends in the metaxia between worlds, right before he begins his explorations. However, my main complaint with that is that i want to see more!
