Thumbs down Re: Plagued Nation: Chapter 1

So let me get this straight…a man who has been asleep for the past ‘thirty years,’ he’s not just a bit ‘weary,’ but now he’s drinking something resembling ‘orange juice?’ And he’s having a coherent conversation about the war?

You are rushing the action.

Wouldn’t Mr. Grey soldier or not be a bit more than dazed after being frozen? Also, what kind of ‘chryo bank’ is this? How did it sustain these soldiers? What effects did it have on these men? They are of sound mind as well as body, ready to fight?

You could have made the introduction of the son in another chapter. Explaining also the ‘effects’ of the pregnant woman/wife of Mr. Grey.

In another chapter you could describe the level of effects to the ‘zombies.’
Again, just for me personally, objectively you are ‘rushing’ the action(s).
