I had  read another short story by this author, and upon recommendation from the same friend who loved Run, Ronny, Run! grabbed this one during a free giveaway. Lots was going on around my home, but when I finally got around to reading Angela of Troy, I could not put it down.Do yourself a favor and pick almost any of Gilmore's books to see how super talented this author just happens to be.  There's something indescribable about his writing, but his subtle wit, vivid imagery, and laid back style bring his delightfully different stories to life.Right out of the gate Gilmore will hook you with his fascinating prose. He is like a singer who has such a unique voice, you love whatever song they sing. But his stories are as unique as his prose, which is why you will enjoy every line he writes.For a short story, Mr. Gilmore packs a punch, however it is tough to really sink into characters as magical as those from his creative mind, therefore I was left slightly whiney, wanting to read more. So, I will reiterate what others say about this one. When the end was near I was almost begging: "I want to read more about Angela!"If you are looking for great, character driven short stories that spring from worlds much different than what you know, please try Gilmore. His characters will stick with you even after you've closed your Kindle, and the only disappointment you might feel is the brevity of his tales.
