Loved this book from start to finish. Fantastic description , almost like you can see the scene unfold before your eyes. An unusual tale that keeps its audience captivated
Very well written. Although only a short story, there was enough depth and substance to make it feel longer. Would be nice to see a full length. Thoroughly recommended.
