Review: Paradox
Rating: 5 out of 5

Very short Novella, well written, although what I consider to be flowery and old-style in its rich use of description rather than character building. I prefer stories help me identify with the characters- with Paradox, I felt like I was on the outside of the story watching an impending train wreck, hoping for a last minute miracle. Then again, isn't that what we want a good story to do? Pull us in so hard  we can't look away? This story was about an event- I didn't find myself sympathetic to the protagonist, although I was curious to know where the story was going. My potential 4-star rating boosted to a 5 upon the surprise ending I was totally not expecting. Well done!
