It takes a talented writer to take an unlikeable character like Dave and write him in such a way that makes readers empathise with him, no matter what his actions are. William Meikle is a talented man indeed. He writes incredibly engaging characters, as seen in this novella.Dave and his friends ask the universe for something they really want and it's not long before the universe responds and neither Dave nor his friends are safe.I liked the style of telling this story which sees Dave retelling the last few weeks to a policeman as he's being questioned. This broke the story up without ruining the flow of it. The conclusion was as it should have been but the romantic theme being explored more at the end I felt was unnecessary.Recommended.
