A story written by Owl focuses on owls. Tipical owl egocentrism...

Use of silence - original, highly entertaining, and most important of all, fairly creepy. When animals go silent, you know that something is wrong, and this story takes a full advantage of it - 100 points

Originality - never before in my life have I read a story such as this. This kind of writing is slowly starting to be Owl's trademark. And I like it - 100 points

Fear factor - not really good. The story spends way too much time focusing on birds, and not enough time building the tension. The facts about our Aviane Predator are too vague and too infrequent to make me even remotely frigtened of it. The only part that somewhat saves the story in this regard is that last section from the military brass. But even still, this isn't adequate - 40 points

Bonus points - author knows his birbs - adds 10 points

Malus points - you really think no one would notice a bird that large - removes 10 points

Serious Malus points - the story suffers from some real formatting issues, as well as several badly sized images that really ruin the integrity of the read - removes 20 points

Final Score: 220/300 (73.3/100)
