HOLY CRAP! I just read your entire story in like one sitting and damn it was worth the butt pain! Your story is truly one of a kind and the entire thing left me speechless. I really do hope you get this published one day and when it becomes famous I can be like "Oh that story. psh. I read and reviewed that story before it was even out =P" But seriously that story is made from pure awesomazingness (awesome/amazing)!

this story was brilliantly written, the plot was amazing! and just the concept of good and evil, shaping it into a more human form and creating a story that made us understand it in a different way. i honestly have so much respect for this story and for you as an author and i just feel like my mind was a bit blown away from this story. even though the ending wasn't what i had hoped it would be, it gives such closure to the story and honestly words cannot express how much deep and beautiful this story really is.

Wow. This story is by far the best one I've EVER read on Fictionpress, and believe me, I've read a lot. This would make the SICKEST movie ever. You should DEFINITELY try getting this published or getting it made into a movie. It would be absolutely amazing. Wonderful, wonderful job!

This was amazing. I've read some stories where the author touches on the devil, and angels, but this one- just wow. And you know I'm being honest because you have no more chapters to upload so there's no reason to flatter you. And your characters- I adored every second of Josh and Anna. They were hilarious. So, yeah. Wonderful story.

So I know I hated Josh a few chapters ago, but all of his overwhelmingly sudden kindness is contagious. I want to buy that iPod.

So I recognize this story is complete, but when he kissed her, it was the MOST, THE MOST, WTF moment of my entire existence. I'm not even kidding. So yeah. haha

This story is so beautiful and the way which you managed to captured the essence of the characters is amazing. I was hooked from the beginning and even though it was really philosophical, you somehow managed to incorperate into it, humour. Overall, the language was quite simple, but the fluidity was great. The only thing which I had a problem with was that Hussein seemed ok with Josh and Anna's, although I would have expected him to be jealous or very bitter. Anyway, thank you so much for the story and I'm very glad to have read it :)

Hello, there. It's Juliet from A Drop of Romeo and your story has been inducted onto the site. Here's your raving review:
Bingo is a very talented author-this story captivates and intrigues. It'll draw you in and leave you breathless at the end. The prose is absolutely lovely. It's a brilliant tale of the supernatural and you must read it.

I haven't been a very loyaly reviewer, and I'm so sorry for that. It's been a loong while since I've really reviewed anything, ugh. But this was good! I loved the ending, loved the story, (hated the ugly Josh), and especially loved the tie in with the title. Very good work.
Your explanation with the utopia was really good. I think something people try to understand is the relationship and balance between good and evil. Is there a good if there isn't an evil? Would a utopia live up to it's name as being a perfect, happy society? I think the arguements you made in the story are good points as to why we need evil, we need Josh. (Oh yea, and Josh is SOO welcome here btw. Jk)
I guess I could /kinda/ see the first son being the white wolf coming, if I had thought about it hard enough. What I don't get is, Josh killed the Wolf when he released him from his curse.. So why is he still alive? Why didn't Josh just kill Marcus when he could, since he was already planning on killing his brother, and Anna was going to lose the Wolf anyway when he released the curse?
And why on Earth did Marcus start that flipping school? I know it's for the normally gifted, but why bother? To create an army of smarter than average teenagers to destroy Josh and take over hell? ...What an interesting idea..
Anyway, good ending, I like that it was Safia and Hussein who ended up telling the story. The only thing i would say is that the begining, it's a flash back, witch contrasts with the storyteller ending, in my opinion. (Not that you notice that unless you read the epilouge and go back to read the prolouge like the jerk I am.)
Okay, this was an uber long review, and I hope this somehow, kinda makes up for the lack of them from chapter 25 or so. (yea, no.) But now I can at least go check out your other stories, because, believe it or not, I have never even checked out your profile, and yes, I do feel terrible because of it. Okay, and that draws the end of my last official review on The Story You Shouldn't Know. Wow, this is sad, but it's been fun.

P.S. For old times sake, Josh was friggin awesome and I /hated/ the wolf. Haha, sorry.

Omg! This story is so great!
I love it already after just reading the first two chapters only!
Josh and Anna are such mysteries...
Which makes the story even nicer?

Ahh. Yes, you know what I mean. I mean what you wrote.
Hey! Why do we have a WHOLE devil but only HALF an angel? That's denying us of our right to be better people. -.- I blame you for life's problems.
...You've distracted me with the flies. -.-
""Gah," said Ali in disgust. "Princess story? Ew, Maryam. I liked the devil. Dad, can I be a devil when I grow up?"
Hussein choked. "Safia, I'm not sure you told this fairy tale quite right."" Haha! I'm with him - Ali.
""It's the story you shouldn't know."" Oh, suspense! kinda. Ok, no suspense.
Gah, all over. Ima go cry in the corner now.
Damn, woman, I'm gonna miss this! -.-

"As the years went by, the Earth became a beautiful place. The trees grew back where they had been cut down. The water purified itself where it had been polluted. The air was fresh and clean, almost delicious to breathe in. The animals, who were never hunted for sport again, began to breed. As the land grew back and natural habitats increased, animals on the brink of extinction were allowed to recover their numbers. The humans were naturally considerate – their cities did not disturb nature, and as technology proceeded at an astonishing rate, without anything holding back its progress, they managed to create useful substitutes for anything that might have been harmful." Make this happen. Please. I'm begging you. Even though it seems a tad boring. And empty.
Oh. "They became empty inside, unbalanced." I knew that was coming...
"Without anger, they could not really be peaceful. Without hate, they could not know love. Without cruelty, they could not fathom kindness. Without ignorance, they could not comprehend knowledge. Without ugliness, they could not appreciate beauty. Without mistakes, they could not move forwards. Without regret, they could not be touched. Without evil, they could not value good." We did that in Philosophy! I was so proud to have come up with a good reason for anger and the bad stuff!
"Marcus Romanian focused hard, and disappeared." O.O
""You've really let yourself go, haven't you?"" Should that be funny? It is. But aww.
""And, quite frankly, I'd rather defeat you at your full strength and take over a fine, vital world rather than bump off the fat kid in the corner and deal with the mess he's left behind."" Lolz.
" I kn0w " ...
"The boy grinned. Even though it was what he had wanted, Marcus was a little unnerved to see Josh's amused grin beginning to appear in his features. "Yes, rather lost its appeal, hasn't it? I really ought to find a new threat. Disembowelment?"
Marcus shuddered. "Too messy."
"I rather thought so. How about piercing your flesh and pulling out your heart?"
"You stole that from dad," said Marcus accusingly.
"It was quite effective, though, you must admit."
"Sadly. Wasn't that how you killed Jinn?"
"Nah. I stuffed his head down a python's throat," said Josh reminiscently. "Poor bloke. Choked on python spit."
"But pythons aren't poisonous," Marcus turned around to examine an oddly shaped bit of fungus on the wall.
"I didn't say they were," said Josh with a shrug. There was a great wheeze as he got to his feet. His joints cracked from the strain. He had not stood in nearly a decade. "Dad was so pissed."
"Hmm. Charming place you've got here," said Marcus, reaching out to touch the strange growth on the wall.
"You'd like it, actually," said Josh seriously. "I believe there's several bones buried underneath the dirt – maybe I can find some newspapers to furnish for you – "" All that is brilliant! :D
"Marcus should have felt triumphant. Instead, all he felt was a sense of tiredness.
Josh was back." Ahh, the woes of siblinghood.
Wait, are they sort of... forces? Not the right word... like, entities? Er, powers? You get me...?
