One thing that many stories of this vintage suffer from is the curse of the outdated technology. Not so here. Because all of the action takes place on Nidor where the technology is relatively primitive to that contemporary to the time of writing, there isn’t much danger of attempting to describe stuff that seems odd or flat out nonsense to the modern reader. One of the reasons why the tale holds it’s own very well today.
