It wasn't as bad as I'd anticipated. It was wordy and had far too many metaphors but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The deux ex machina plot device used in Chapter 8 did take me out of the narrative a little. I would've liked to have seen some sort of set-up.
Faiz could've referenced the knife by picking it up for protection.
other than this, it was okay. I could see this author improving and creating a masterpiece of some sort eventually.
