Betas!

Have you finished reading & critting my novel? I've gotten 2 back, and they're polar opposite on most aspects, so I'd really like at least one more to balance it out.

Thanks so much!

Yahhh, I definitely disagree with that. I didn't find it to be too many named characters. But then again, I am used to reading fantasy with 3020398423 characters and keeping them (fairly) straight ;).

I just read 1632 (a small town in WV is picked up and dropped into 1632 Thuringia, hijinks ensue), and, hell, there's easily 50 named characters, and at least 8 POVs.

But, like, what, so I'm supposed to refer to every. single. character. as the gunner, the medic, the grenadier, the other squad's medic, the other squad's grenadier? wtf no. Coming up with names is a giant pain in the ass, but you have to do it, you know?
