Procure All Light Will Fall Expressed By Almney King Distributed As Softcover

LIGHT WILL FALL, by Almney King, left me speechless, Before I could write a review, I had to sleep on it for a bit just to process the story as a whole,

The story is a scifi dystopian told in firstperson by a young female main character named Corrine, Like most dystopian stories, the main surviving populace of the world lives under a strict, but also hitech dictatorship with ultimate power, There are of course resistant fighters/rebels that are constantly trying to regain the publics freedom, but are undermatched and are made to look like terrorists in the publiceye.
Meanwhile, an alien planet is also going through their own troubled times, which supplies the advanced power source earth needs to run its cities, Corrine is young and searching for answers in both her own life purpose, and the truth behind the rebels and the secrets of the evil government, Without giving too much away, she gets in a lot of trouble and discovers something that takes the story on a whole new turn, I almost couldn't believe what I was reading, it shocked me so well, What unfolds ends up connecting Earth and the alien planet in ways I'm still trying to process and understand,

This book was gritty at times, but definitely fascinating as Corrine mentally discusses her troubles with the reader, I haven't read a book with such a deepthinking main character in awhile, With that said, to me, It felt like the author really put her heart into the story, And subtly throughout, I could sense a spiritual/Christian view about the evilness of man, the brutality of war, and how God seems silent while injustice rules.
. . It definitely can make some interesting discussions,

Along with those struggles I mentioned above, Corrine is also seeing the darkness inside herself and looking for hope and answers to why her own father left her.
But these constant, deep, sad, and negative views of herself do get kind of depressing because some of it was very relatable to me when I examine my own heart.
The only thing I wish was in the story a bit more, was a message of hope to bring the reader out of the dark place a bit more than there was.


Overall: All Light Will Fall was well written and fascinating to the very end, I look forward to reading Miss King's next story, and will be watching!





I appreciate that the author wrote this story when she wasyears old, but, honestly, it reads as though written by a tenyearold.
Choppy, repetitive language, frequent overuse of certain words especially "beautiful", frequent misuse of words e, g. , "dogged" instead of "dodged", runon scenes, extremely simplistic action sequences and the simplistic triviality with which most of the protagonist's fights resolve, etc,

Interestingly, Ms. King's selfreview posted here on this book on Goodreads, short as it is in comparison, is much better written than any part of this book, Perhaps her writing has matured in the intervening two years, I hope so. She certainly seems to have the drive to get there, and that's often the most vital ingredient,

Along the way, if she hasn't already, I'd suggest a few things:

Vocabulary, Be careful of overusing the same words sooo often, and ensure your understanding of the words you do use, Having a dictionary nearby while proofreading your own work helps, but the best way of broadening and strengthening your own vocabulary is almost always to read, A lot. And take the time to be sure you understand every word you read, even if you have to keep a dictionary nearby while you read,

Get to know the phrase "Show, don't tell, " It's not just a Rush song although that's worth a listen, too, but a common writers' mantra that's utterly vital to delivering setting, scene, and story smoothly and clearly.
Look up the phrase anywhere even Wikipedia and absorb it deeply, For example, this concept could be especially important in conveying the utter alien newness of Meridian: don't keep telling me over and over how alien and beautiful it is, describe to me what it is that is so alien and/or so beautiful that I'll be able to see that it is without you haven't to tell me that it is.


There's obviously all kinds of more, but those two pillars stick out the most strongly to me, and I suspect that working long on those will cause many other gaps will fill themselves in along the way.


In short, IMO, the highlevel story concept and outline of "All Light Will Fall" wasn't bad at all, but the experience and skill to tell it well just wasn't there at all.
Yet At first I was a bit weary to pick up this book, Coming from such a YOUNG, unknown author, I expected to see another rerun of The Hunger Games and maybe a play off of Divergent like so many other upcoming scifi books these days.
At first the book does appear to carry that tone, The story is set some time around yearwith two clashing societies surviving on Earth, While the conflict between the two societies is immediately recognized with an startling beginning, the story does not stop there! The author opens up a whole new world of usNiaysia, after taking the protagonist, Corrine, through some rather grueling trials.
The story is gruesome, emotional, and thoughtprovoking, I really enjoyed the characters and the journey in which the characters embark, The story is truly fresh, heartbreaking, and splendid and the voice of the author seems to simply SHINE, There's a deep sense of spirituality that sticks with Corrine who later becomes Celeste throughout the story, Just a note if you're bothered by stories of that nature, HOWEVER, the author does a remarkable job of developing Corrine without seeming "preachy", While there were a few consistences between popular stories like HG and Avatar, the story holds its own and is truly a window to another world, I'm hungry for the sequel and more work from this talented young author, Long after the Trinity Wars, a world of light approaches the Earth, ARTIKA, a newworld regime in practice of mysterious sciences, discovers a staggering revelation, Where there is light, there is life, One blessed, the other cursed, war ensues between Earth and a startraveling worldNiaysia, Corrine, curious to discover ARTIKAs dark truths, becomes a pawn for a war between planets, an arsenalCeleste, She is thrown into a realm of death and imperceptible beauty, A dark and spiritual awakening awaits her, and on the desperate journey home, Celeste must not only battle the evils within herself, but the darkness steadily rising between Earth and a world unknown.

Good book and its very interesting This book completely took my attention from the first page, Although I thought about some others series while I was reading the first chapters, the plot twist was completely unexpected, And I really liked reading something new and the all other world stuff, Well done Almney, looking for the next book, And I really want Ellis back! I received this book through a giveaway for an honest review, The dystopian genre has overtime become very mundane, with the same story lines over and over again, All Light Will Fall is not one of those books, A unique premise, with an all too possible

in the real world plot will keep you turning the pages, The author's writing style is wonderful, descriptive, and has a great flow, This book has a strong, intelligent female lead which is a another huge plus, I really hope to read more from this author in the future! Don't let her age or the fact it's her first novel dissuade you from reading this awesome book! Gripping and expertly told.
I love dystopian and the epic struggle between good and evil, If you do, too, then All Light Will Fall needs to be on the top of your reading list,

There is a rawness to this story, and the character Corrine delivers insights and faces challenges that will give you something to really think about.


Your view of our world, and other worlds, will never be the same after reading this book, I highly recommend it! This is a very talented young novelist, This novel is a must read, Get ready for a ripping and emotional ride, This is a awesome SciFi adventure with a "New" twist, You will be quite surprise! No spoilers!

KTS, What an intriguing yet sad story for one seventeen year old girl to endure, and I can only imagine her pain and suffering! I liked Corrine from the start with her curiousness about the other city banned to her town.
It had been over seventy years since the Trinity War ended taking free will from the common man, Always tracked wherever you went and whatever you did by the ruling ARTIKA, once she's caught in forbidden territory, she is put through every horror you can imagine, yet she survived and is now a weapon they called, As riveting as the plot was, I found the human characters and their interaction with each other to be quite forced the MC's thoughts, while deep and introspective and contributes to the world building, were a bit too rambling at times.
I found myself skimming past most of it toward the end, The Meridians especially Uway and the two kids were the most interesting part of the book it's a shame we didn't see more of them,

Also as perfect as Corrine thought herself to be not to mention kept reminding everyone else she was, she didn't strike me to be any more skilled or more intelligent than the others.
In fact, her IDchip had fried accidentally which had led her to regaining her 'humanity', while the others who rebelled had to cut theirs out on purpose.
