It appears the dark angels are not opportunists (eating anyone they find) but target someone and become increasingly like that person physically before they finish them off. Yes, I believe the people are dead after the doppelganger eats their soul.Jeff Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08374806472853391788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173883957459478898.post-2063711654059214982012-09-26T19:04:04.966-07:002012-09-26T19:04:04.966-07:00I'm finishing the story tomorrow and will post...I'm finishing the story tomorrow and will post my review by the weekend.

It didn't seem that his dad would have cared enough to have it fixed - especially since he wasn't usually sober. So I had assumed it was not a high priority in his family.tweezlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17582232237930976366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173883957459478898.post-69489525573704650392012-09-26T15:18:42.895-07:002012-09-26T15:18:42.895-07:00So interesting, Jeff.

[SPOILER ALERT] When the demons swapped out people, they killed them, right? So how did Zeph get a doppelganger without knowing about it and without being killed?[END SP] Was that explained and I missed it?<br /><br />I appreciate you perspective.

It's the cleft part and the personal experience I have with it that made the difference.Jeff Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08374806472853391788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173883957459478898.post-82358005728725467022012-09-26T13:30:02.567-07:002012-09-26T13:30:02.567-07:00I'm with you: an irreparable scar, in this age...I'm with you: an irreparable scar, in this age of advanced plastic surgery, did strike me as odd. (Or, if it couldn't be completely repaired, it could have been minimized.) It would have been good if a sentence or two had been included to explain what surgery had occurred already, and why more couldn't have been done. (Or, perhaps, tell us that Zeph hadn't been given care in a timely fashion, and healing/scarring occurred before repairs could be made to reverse or impeded the disfigurement.)<br /><br />But, as I continued reading, the scar just became "it is what it is". I would have liked to see an expanded, clearer ending of the story, however.Keanan Brandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12638962927055276969noreply@blogger.com
