Bermuda TriangleThis is an excellent short science-fiction story variation on the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle.  It differs from other stories you may have read of this type in that it spends its time and energy on the experience of the hapless man who is trapped by this anomaly, rather than the view from outside.  The writing here is first-class, and the intimate personification of the central character is as good as any Ursula LeGuin story; this tale also has O'Henry elements in it.My own imagination runs to the visual, and this story really elicited strong mental images for me.  It felt like it was written with the intention of being a movie, it is so well paced with the tempo of scenes, exotic locales, and the contrast to the prosaic life of a typical sailor.  The ending creates, as all good sci-fi movies do, a perfect set-up for a sequel.Five Stars
