From beginning to end, this is a flat-out great foundation for a compelling story. Thomas raises the stakes almost immediately, barely giving the reader time to get their bearings before a routine space flight is thrown into wild disarray. Even better, he creates a wonderfully engaging pastiche of storytelling, deftly weaving elements of the main character's troubled past into the present narrative with such seeming ease and verve it actually made me envious as an author. I'm honestly not sure I've seen as much character and plot development in such a short story as I've seen in these 34 pages. Simply put, it's fantastic, and you should jump on board as quickly as you can.
