Review a short novel

"Rameses the King" is a fiction adapted from Sophocles’s play "Oedipus the King." The story runs 25,482 words, shorter than a full-length novel, and is set in the modern fictitious nation Timora, near Greece. While searching for a way to stop gun violence in Timora, Rameses discovers he could lose everything he cherishes to the violence of his past.
The reviewer should be familiar with Sophocles's Theban plays, particularly "Oedipus the King," and should verify this matter in his/her response. The review itself should include comments for improving the short novel "Rameses the King," comments on an awkward sentence structure, comments on concepts that don't work for the reviewer, comments on inconsistencies in the story, etc.
