“This is the perfect short story/novella. The usual restrictions of the short story actually aid the narrative arc because the pacing is beautifully considered. The characterisation is immediate and the author’s players are instantly recognisable and complete.” –Zombie Rob, The Slaughtered Bird
“As I was reading this, it brought to mind how I felt when I first discovered Burroughs – the narrative is that good!” –Jason Berry, The Mad Ravings of An Entertainment Junkie
