I got lost in the story. But that good kind of lost that want when you read a story. A kind of lost where you’re caught up in the story so that you don’t really care about anything else that you’re doing. Needless to say, I enjoyed this story and it was very well done. It brought in an element of fantasy to the story without being totally ludicrous. Kudos to you, Mr. Tolbert. I hope you have more of this sort of fantasy you can share with us. The only problem I had with it was that i got a little confused on what the moral was supposed to be.

Sincerely yours,
The Blaine Boy

For such an excellent set-up, Tolbert executes the story in a hollow, patchy and unfantastical fashion leading to a huge misfire of the plot-especially of the ending- as well as characterisation and the story’s moral learnings.

I enjoyed the story. (Although: I had a few moments’ trepidation, where I worried what that old man wanted with Emelia. I just wasn’t up for that today.)

I especially enjoyed Ann Leckie’s reading. How genius to narrate at a break-neck speed, the better to give us the feel of what it would be like to walk in Emelia’s (nonexistent) shoes.
