"“Vivetal”—the first novelette in the science fiction and fantasy series Reassortment…
“No one is left except those of us who live in Beimeni.”
A most superb beginning of what promises to be a stunning series!
The prose is highly absorbing and well paced- characters are finely woven and I am very much looking forward to next installment.
A must read for those who enjoy brilliant scifi/fantasy mix!!!

If you ever read a Raeden Zen you will probably remember his writing/books as the type you can't just relax and read. Nope your brain has to be working to full capacity and paying attention lest you miss a word or misunderstand one of his many complex ideas. So exactly the kind of book that tends to rivet readers of the sci-fi genre.
Mixed within the science fiction are subtle strains of a futuristic steampunk and dystopian world. This novella length story is an introduction the Reassortment series.
Zen can be very cold and harsh in his descriptions, which brings me to the element I think his writing lacks, emotion. Well written and fast moving creative concepts in abundance, but the reader often fails to connect, because of the sterile style.

really cool premise, and well told short story, but it needed more. The characters felt undeveloped,and I wanted to understand them better. Not bad, but it could have been so much better.
