Reviews

entertaining story with Twilight zone vibes and one icky subplot


(4 stars)

despite being moved along by almost entirely via serial Deus ex Maxima, I really enjoyed this story. the story is marred somewhat by the nature of the planned fate facing our female protagonist... she definitely gets the short end of the plot stick, so to speak. I can't say more without spoiling.
