So far, it's a disappointment compared to the other novellas in this series.

So far, better than the the first book and the prequel that I read prior to this installment of Elric's adventures. The second half of the book feels more polished and more engaging than the first half.

So far, most of what Kross writes is not a revelation to me... especially the technique of referring to oneself in the second person to gain distance and clarity. I owe that technique to being involved with sports most of my life, and I think other athletes who had good coaches will echo this. What I did find interesting was that I don't "chatter" as other people, or at least how he describes it early in the book.

The prose flows like honey, and you can actually feel the wind, the storm blowing, the city in decline, and the sadness of the main character.

The authors cite too few of their assumptions, and in two cases have made errors with respect to references. Still, I've learned a couple of things... but not what the authors may have intended.

Surprisingly insightful and chaotic all at once.

The Spanish still aren’t doing well

The Spanish aren’t doing well in Texas at this juncture

Fascinating

Unexpectedly engrossing so far
