Thanks for the info. They sound pretty for a paltry $50.
The constant cliffhangers annoy me because it of what it does to my experience when reading a run straight through. It's like story-story-OMGCLIFFHANGER-story-story-OMGCLIFFHANGER-lather-rinse-repeat. I don't, it gets to me after a while. I feel like shouting OMG! DIAL DOWN THE EMOTION!
"You could be using this space for characterization! Or to rationalize this silly plot! Argh, wasted time!"
Totally agree with you on this. So. Much. Agreement.
The majority of writers treat sexual coercion and even rape as if it's the same as the character getting punched (or punching someone) a few times. And it isn't.
I have the same problem with the telepathic shenanigans. Some writers don't understand how much that kind of forced intimacy would screw a person up. Especially superheroes, many of whom are already such dysfunctional personalities.
