This was honestly an excellent short story! I don't anticipate Garth Nix doing more for this in terms of a follow-up or other stories set in this sort of fantastic horror alternate-history world, but this really scratched an itch for me I didn't know I needed to satiate. Highly recommend this, and I actually think it might be a decent introduction into his writing for new readers! I won't say anything else about it, because that would spoil it, and you really should just go in blind and expect a short but fun time.
