(short story)This story has a lot of potential and characters that I would like to know more about.  Even the weapon idea really caught my interest and made me want to find out what was going to happen.  The ending made me almost cheer.  I really enjoyed it.But ...This would have been really good - 4 1/2, even 5 star - without the unrealistic, awkward romance that, frankly, was not necessary.  I mean, as soon as it started, I felt like it was a cop-out, like the author wasn't sure about his story and stuck that in to catch people's attention.  And, to make matters worse, he's just been hurt during interrogation and they're captured in a cell and that's when they decide to do it?!?! *rolls eyes* I do appreciate that we didn't get full on description.  It just wasn't necessary and seemed really out of place when it came to the rest of the story.  Like pages from another book were stuck in as a trick.  Bad decision.Note: I received a copy of this story in exchange for my honest review.
