I RECEIVED THIS BOOK AS FREE REVIEWING COPY FROM THE AUTHOR.This short story was a very pleasant bright spot amongst many shorts and shortish novellas that I have read lately. I really really enjoyed how the writer gave a purpose to every word in the story, every word, every sentence meant something. I thought that I learned more about the characters than I have learned from some much longer stories. I thought that in such short page space the writer showed how the artist feels and thinks and I felt that his profession reflected exactly who Jez was as a character and thats something I find often lacking in mm stories. Of course we learned less about Steven, but it IS a short after all and he was not a POV character and it was really fun to see how first impressions change into real facts later on. Really fun story - very bright I guess, the colours assault you from the very first sentences and it is just awesome.
