Reviews

Smith throws you right into the fray, and never lets you think about doing the dishes the same way again!

[Steven Shinder · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read the first half of this "Quiver" arc almost ten years ago, and really liked it then, apparently. But there are bits here where you can really tell a guy wrote this. You know, that type of writing.

"And of all the exercises the old man put me through, it was never the lesson itself that taught me the value of patience.

It was his example."
