Review: Good, quick-paced read.

This short story pulls you right in from the start with that extra grip that first-person narratives seem to have - at least for me. Overall, I found it to be a good story with plenty of action in a short time, but eventually it reached a point where I couldn't believe what was being proposed and then I was even more disappointed when things went where I feared they were going to go. I don't know if I should blame the author for predictability, or myself for always predicting what's going to happen. Either way, it didn't keep me from reading to the end, because despite that one disappointment, the writing is good and that's the most important thing to me. Good writing is fun to read no matter what's happening and I enjoyed my introduction to this writer and will definitely read more of him. I'm actually looking forward to seeing the protagonist in a full-length novel.
