I didn't realize until I read a review for this that the same author wroteA Good Clean, A Harsh Clean, one of the better independently published short stories I've read via Amazon.  This story is totally different, but also very well done.  It's that rarest of birds -- a serial short story than can also completely stand alone (I had no idea it WAS a serial until I looked at the product information page just now).It's about a young person in a post-apocalyptic world.  They've been alone for some time and Martinez does a great job of using language to underscore that point.  It takes a bit of patience to understand exactly what has happened to the world, but it is worth the read and I can't wait to continue with the story.
