Hey, everyone. I'm brand new to this forum, so I apologize if this topic's been brought up thousands of times.
I was curious what the general consensus was on chase scenes in a book. Are they intriguing to read, or is it better to keep it brief and to the point?
I'm reworking a chapter in my novel where the MC breaks out of a "prison" in a monster's cave and flees for the exit. I'm torn between reworking the current chapter, which runs about 4-5 pages of an escape sequence, or rewriting it from scratch and stripping it down to the bare bones, so to speak.
Let me know your thoughts. Thanks for your time!
