Thomas and the Rusty Strings of Death expands upon the Outer Limits meets Brothers Grim sci-fi fairytale cosmos that Quick introduced (at least to me) in the Worlds of the Orb. The pacing is perfect, and the tangled web of characters pulls together smoothly in the end. At this point, I've lost count of how many of WC Quick's stories and books I've read, but if he keeps writing them, I'll keep reading them.
