Although the story would benefit from showing instead of telling us about Sam, his mother, and the other characters, I found this an enjoyable introduction to Thomas Norwood's writing.Understand, there are points about this short story that are a challenge to get one's head around, but there certainly is a good premise and a solid plot. Of course, it is difficult to write a short story while trying to develop characters and provide sufficient detail to ease a reader's suspension of disbelief.I would go into more detail about the issues, but I don't want to spoil what is an excellent, well-written, well-edited story.I certainly enjoyed the story enough to buy the full-length novel. Be watching for my review of that in the future.In summary, I found The Last Reader to be an interesting installment that entices me to buy Perfectible Animals.
