Review: Doesn't work as a standalone story

This story had some potential, but I just kept being kicked out of the story every time the author suggested that the modern theories about illness were known in the 17th century.  In the end, I found myself wondering what the point even was.  Unless one is interested in the universe of the author's longer work, this isn't worth the read.
