Story 3/5

Interesting story that could have used more space to be expanded. The writing was well done and original.

Fantastic

This was the most original story I've read all year. I love this story, and can't wait to read the others.

Although short, this novella is packed with emotion and loaded with allegory. It's an adventure from the first page to the last. The pace felt rushed and the ending was appropriate for a book much longer in length, but I loved the story and its characters.
