This is the first Hugh Howey story I've read. It won't be the last.What I find truly impressive about Peace in Amber is that Howey manages to use the language of Vonnegut while maintaining his own voice throughout the story. This some very terse, tight writing, the kind of prose that makes literature worth reading and re-reading. In fact, I think I will read this one again just for the sheer value of admiring the beautiful prose. Howey packs sentence after sentence of real value and beauty in a short story that would make Vonnegut himself proud.
