It is a great story as Scalzi's books normally are, he's a damn fine writer. BUT this isn't a book or even a novelette, its a chapter length short. I always check the file size before I buy, and with this one coming in at 447kb I felt I was getting a book. Therein lies the rub, how do you bloat a chapter to 447kb to make it appear to be a novel? Shouldn't it be more like 47kb? File size has been a reliable indicator to this point so why the deception?I feel ripped off, but it was a very good story.
