Hello guys!
I was wondering if there's anyone interested in beta-reading what I've written so far in my World War II novel entitled "Fires & Embers" (formerly In the Shadows of Falling Petals). I'll need someone, preferably Japanese, to see to the language usage, the personality and some cultural aspects, since my main protagonist is a Japanese soldier who is reluctantly sent to war.
I will also need a beta-reader who can accept the brutality of Japan's militarialistic past. I made this novel mostly to show how brutal war can be from all sides and either way, everyone loses.
Also, I need a reader who can give me some constructive criticisms on how to improve my work, someone who won't plagiarize my life's work, and someone who won't expect any monetary payment
Here's the blurb:
"The Philippines, 1941...
Another invader tramples upon the sacred shores of the Orient's Pearl.
Through the tumult of Japan's brutal conquest of the Philippine islands, an unlikely bond forms between a Japanese soldier and a Filipino guerilla fighter, born from the desire for justice...and revenge...
As the Second World War unfolds, so the saga of trust and loyalty, lies and betrayal, wreak havoc with the lives of many until only one truth remains:
Nothing but LOVE can conquer all..."
If anyone is interested, kindly PM me or e-mail me at fires_and_embers@yahoo.com.ph
