Review: Second Chance
Rating: 3 out of 5

I found the beginning of the story a little rough, not enough insight into the man and his situation--even though it was only a short story. Then the tale jumped into an alternate reality, a weird alternate reality.At that point, I wasn't sure how it would end, but it seemed an awful lot like the character was being tested in the alternate reality, given a second chance. There also seemed to be some abstract symbolism at play here, above my head, though.My biggest complaint is that the ending didn't wrap up the story nicely. It left me hanging, but then I think that's due to the beginning of the story not being fleshed out adequately. There was a disconnect between the beginning and the ending.The writing was fine. If not for the issues I discussed above, I'd have given it more than 3 stars.
