Wretched Print Formatting
Story is decent, but the formatting of just a few sentences widely spaced across the page was both distracting and headache inducing. I'm not a book snob, am fine overlooking small editing errors, but this is too much. Almost as if author had one good short novella and tried a school trick of writing in large print or spacing out too much to fill the space to make more "books" for a series. The headache from reading in this format isn't worth it.

Short story...
I did not care for the layout. Perhaps it was an attempt to keep old minds on the story as it moved. I found it insulting.
