Review: Short Story
Rating: 3 out of 5

Not only is this short but the formatting at the end 84% went straight into the publishers blurb and extract from another book without a break. Apart from this minor annoyance this is a survival story set about 4000 years in the future when it is impossible to live for any time on the surface of the earth. Merys the main character is part of a small group going to the surface of the planet, I am not sure why. I don't want to give the plot away but a twist at the end does not come as much of a surprise, in fact not as much of a surprise as reading past the end into the publishers blurb. However all of the characters are well described and bring to life the harshness of the planet.
