Ο Μάιλς ανέλαβε την αποστολή σωτηρίας του μόνου ανθρώπου που μπορούσε να αλλάξει τη ροή του πολέμου, του ανθρώπου που βρισκόταν αιχμάλωτος σε μια φυλακή χειρότερη από την κόλαση, μια φυλακή με 10.000 αιχμαλώτους δίχως φρουρούς...

Εκπληκτική νουβέλα! Εάν είχα οποιαδήποτε αμφιβολία πως μου αρέσει ο Μάιλς, μου την εξανέμισε. Ευφυέστατο, μου θύμισε έντονα το 'Τι Είδε η Γυναίκα του Λωτ;', συμπυκνωμένο βεβαίως. Τρομερό διαμαντάκι, το προτείνω σε όλους. Καμία σχέση με sci-fi, όπως ίσως να το φαντάζονται ορισμένοι.
The second book of Miles' story I've read. From what I've NOW come to understand I should have probably read the main books first instead of the three short story ones but, oh well.
This story is pretty self-contained, a military war camp during a large war, which I'm not sure whether it's part of a main book storyline or not. Interesting characters, intriguing story development and left me satisfied by its quality. Would recommend reading.
