Review: I like the premise, but I only hope this was a teaser for a longer expansion someday soon.

I like twists and surprises along with short stories, that could preclude an idea moving into a series, chapters, or parts of the whole novel spread out over time. It could even be a novella. I wouldn't mind. I hope this inspires the author to think about that idea and move ahead on it as soon as possible. I like the short story, and I will watch for more efforts from this author. I would like some more expansion of the premise, and he could contilnue to work on a series involving more than just this one little short one. I like stories that give us bits and pieces of past, present or future social problems surfacing into the plot. We all learn from new ideas and possibilities of mistakes we make as people. This story shows some of those glimmers of ideas filtering into the light at the end of the tunnel. The main character faced the turmoil, when he first wondered how and why something changed for him on his exit from the tunnel. I leave the rest to the next reader to discover on their own about what happened in this story. The future readers unaware of the story-line will wish like all those that liked the story, that their is potential in this story for more.
