Review: Another Scalzi Ruse?
Rating: 3 out of 5

I felt somewhat unsatisfied by this short story, apart from the contrast in length with the first extra long story, (I also looked to see if something was missing in my download) it seems to barely survives in context with the rest of the OMW universe. It raises more questions than it answers and if you have only read the first story in this book, its reason for existence would be opaque.  I suspect if read in context with the remainder of the short stories, the why of it may become clear. Perhaps it is a ruse by Scalzi to make us buy the rest of the stories - oh this author is tricky!
