Review: Liked it, but Not What I Was Hoping For

Footsteps is a brief tale set in the "outside" where the cannibal killer is on the loose. The writing is excellent and typical of Martin's engaging style, but the story felt incomplete. I LOVED Inside the Outside and was really hoping this short would transport me back to the characters I've missed since closing the book. I hoped it would provide additional insight into old characters instead of introducing new ones. If I hadn't read Inside the Outside, I'm not sure that Footsteps would've made much sense to me.
