Mary's Reviews


In a bid to get back at Simba for his exclusion from Pride rock, Scar searches for ways to defeat his nephew, Simba. I thought at first this story was going to portray Scar as a good lion, but like the original movie he is still the bad guy. This piece is writing looks good it doesn't sound like there would be a different outcome than that of the original movie. But it doesn’t stop you from wanting to read more.


The time line for this story is a bit confusing and there were a lot of quotes. I didn’t get the ending part; it just didn’t feel like it was quite finished. It would have been better if the author dragged it on a bit longer. It has a good script but leaving you confused makes it a bit boring.



 

Nala is a nice but shy lioness. She avoids the idea of making friends fearing that she would be rejected. Simba has been brought up well by his parents and when other lionesses started to gang up on Nala he was there by her side and befriends her. I like this story. It has a very good sequel and the pace looked like it wasn't rushed. It seems like that the author was really into writing this story. I was also very descriptive and expressive.





This this story was from Simba's point of view on his childhood and what went down at the stampede when his father died. The narrator sounded quite sad while telling this story. It’s alright; they could have done better without the replication of the original movie.




 

So what if Pumbaa and Timon found Simba much earlier than they would have in the movie? This piece of writing was very easy to read, not one bit was boring. The script was well thought over and I enjoyed every bit. The authors efforts of trying to match the original characters humour to their story were a success. Every quote I had read I was able to visualize and match it with the original character.
