I very much enjoyed Jeri Smith-Ready's "Shade" series and it made reading "Bridge" an obvious choice.  While I enjoyed this very short story which fills in an important event that we didn't originally see on the pages of the trilogy because that series narrator Aura wasn't in it.  "Bridge" tells of the meeting between dead Logan and his older brother Mickey.  Mickey hasn't been the same since holding Logan as he died from an overdose in the first novel.  He has held in guilt and bitterness over the tragedy.  Here Logan and Mickey confront their issues through use of young woman who can communicate with Logan.  This was a nice offering from Smith-Ready; she never fails to deliver a good story.  For hardcore fans there a few other nice extras including lyrics to Logan's song to Aura and an interview with Mickey and Logan which brought a little levity after the serious story.  The lyrical writing through me off at first but I found it very agreeable coming from Logan.  It fit him well.  I wish there would have been more to the actual story but really that is a compliment to the quality fo the short story.  This isn't anything you have to read to enjoy the main trilogy but it is a nice addition.
