I really got into this story from the beginning. Hill did a great job creating his dystopia and his characters. My only "complaint" would be that I want more of the story, more of what happens at the Farm and how it deals with the installation at Crater Lake. But I realize the story as written was complete. And it is quite well written. I tend to make a habit of reading poor reviews to compare them to the good ones. I noticed that the worst ones for this story complained of an "LGBT" agenda. All that amounts to is the inclusion of a few incidental gay characters who manage to function in this broken civilization alongside straight characters in relative harmony, hardly the point of the story. What this free story has done is to spark my interest in reading more of Mr. Hill's work. That spells success to me.
