Reviews: "The concept behind this story really intrigued me, since I don't really know a lot about the Muslim religion. The novel gives a great representation and explanation to the religion, even to those who aren't necessarily a part of it.'' ''I found it hard to put down, the characters were very realistic to read about and resembled real people I felt I could root for throughout the entire story. My overall favourite had to be Muhammad because of all the depth and devotion you placed into his character. '' ''Grammatically, I didn't really find any errors, which is both an impressive feat and something you should be proud of. I have to complain to a lot of authors for dialogue that seems like it's forced and unnatural, but your story's dialogue made me feel like I was right there as your characters were talking. Overall, a wonderful work that definitely deserved first place at The Dreamer Awards." First published on Saturday 17/6/17 / 7 PM Last published on Saturday 18/11/17 / 3:59 PM

Everyday is the same for me in this white room. Nothing but eating and sleeping, the only living beings I see are the people in white hazmat suits that deliver my food. I don't know how long I've been here or why I'm in here, I'm just hoping they'll finally let me out.

Highest :#5 Since the very inception of this universe, we've been there. Always watching, following, observing. We've even lived in galaxies and planets yet to be discovered by humans. Seen things beyond your wildest imaginations. But we were foolish. Imprudent we were to have followed the humans. For they have now ruined us. We are subjugated to live in captivity just so that peace can be maintained on Earth. Is there a way out for us? To escape this torture and pain? Can we...break the law? Go against the council? To rebel against the very decree that governs us? The charter that dictates who we are and the legislation that we are all bound to since the very beginning of time? But how longer can one endure? Our freedom, honour, dignity, all ripped away. Gone. Forced apart from our loved ones, with no hopes of a reunion. Without even a chance to say goodbye. Are our lives going to be spent in servitude till our very last breath? Or can there be a change after 4.54 billion years? Dare I hope for a revolution? Or is it criminal to even have such thoughts? ******************************** 'No Lucia. I can not. I will not. I will not let you live your life pining after me in the hope that someday we will be together', I said with a heavy heart. I refused to bind my loved one to me. Our masters would eventually change and then we would be separated again. And I couldn't see my Lucia in such agony. 'Oh Cimme', Lucia replied cupping my jaw with her hand. 'I love you and I'll happily wait for aeons simply knowing that you do too'. 'I do. With all my heart, but, Love is a trap my dear Lucia. When it appears we see only its light, not its shadows'. I replied solemnly. Trying to knock some sense into her. 'Then my dear Cimme', Lucia began with a twinkle in her eye, 'I'm glad I fell into this trap. Only then would I have seen you.' **********************************
