Much richer than previous stories - more info on internal matter (feelings, motivations). Good story too - Manly is interesting. On the other hand, 20 days later I've forgotten what happened...Oh right, now I remember. It was too strongly parallel with what happened to Peter in the first two stories - I kept rejecting what I remembered. What, another Treegate thrown off a ship and lacking his memory, succored by someone who isn't interested in the war? Hmmmph.
