Status Updates From Time Dweller

huh?

The streak is broken with two stories in a row that did little for me. Wolf and Consuming Passion. Neither have a time theme, but both have a sort of man mastered by his own id type theme. Not terrible, but not memorable. (Consuming Passion does have something about it that's holding me, I'll be curious to see how I feel in several weeks).

A Golden Barge - another trippy great story that's somehow both allegorical and not. Good time.

The Deep Fix is another fun story strangely saved by its total zaniness. Up to the last quarter it reminded me a little of Dhalgren by Delany, which was written a decade later. Despite having a ridiculous plot, this was a good time.

Escape From Evening - a good story though heavy on exposition. Glad to discover it's a shared universe story with Time Dweller.

The title story is a banger. Right out the gates I was swept away. A rare 5 star story.
