this was a really enjoyable read with a good depth of key characters. The ending is one of the more suprising and the final words are perfect.
A well written story, though the plot was obvious in a couple of places. The ending was poor, almost like it was a desperate afterthought.
Does anyone else think G.M. Ford was tired of his character... reminded me of a "who" concert when they broke there instruments so the fans could not ask for any more returns... good story bad ending
