Review: A short story that would do well if made longer!

I read Dark Luck not realizing that it was a short story, and it didn't feel like a short story either. The two subject matters, winning the lottery and time travel, are both things that most people have thought about and it fit into this story really nicely. I really enjoyed the idea and it was written in a way that drew me in and didn't let go. It played on the craziness of the idea and also allows that crazy to be part of the story; there was no need to be skeptical yourself as there were well written characters doing it for you.The only real complaint that I have is that I (again) didn't realize it was only a short story and there was so much further it could have gone. I was really excited when the action was happening and I thought it was only 1/3 complete, then it just suddenly ended and left me a little upset because I wanted more!
