What a fantastic addition to the Wool 'verse! Mr. Davies' characters are every bit as compelling as Mr. Howey's - three-dimensional, sympathetic, very very real. My heart broke for Ace and Mick, even though I'd only gotten to know them through the course of a few short pages.One of the great things I'm finding about the Wool fanfic is that it provides glimpses into areas of the Silos that Hugh hasn't yet explored. That these authors' voices are different from Hugh's is fine, given that we're hearing from other characters. Rather than cheapen "the real Wool story", they add to it beautifully.As for those reviewers who are blasting this story for its "political agenda" - shame on you. I see no "agenda" here, only the desire to tell the story of two fascinating characters who find themselves face-to-face with a dark reality. In that, Mr. Davies succeeds remarkably. I recommend this story highly, and am now off to find other works by this author.
