I enjoyed this short story very much. Having read Birthright by Mr. St Clare first helped my understanding of the events, I think. i highly recommend it and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

A great story, very well written. Delving deeper than just light entertainment Apeman is fascinating examination of class, slavery and social constructions skilfully contained in an engaging and easily read tale.

Normally, I do not have much interest in science fiction reading. Apeman is a perfect example of how a good cover can pull in a new reader. I read Apeman from beginning to end. This story is tightly written. The conversations with the Apeman are slick and concise, with nuggets of literary gold for the reader to snatch up and lock away in memory. While not a horror story, per se, there are moments that brought back sensations that I felt during a particular conversation when I first watched the film, "2001: A Space Odyssey" -- a masterpiece by anyone's standard.

Gerald St Clare is an author I will look to for future reading. His writing is compelling and as stylish as Isaac Asimov. I highly recommend this haunting tale.
