Fantastic
A terrific short story that didn't faultier at any point. Grove was great to listen to and portrayed the naivety of Honeywells's Lalla fantastically.

Intrigued
I listened to this fully aware that it is a short prequel to a full length sequel.
With this in mind, I found this book enjoyable and intriguing. I will likely read the sequel.

A short but big story through the eyes of a child.
I thoroughly loved it and would like to read more by this author. It's an interesting interpretation of the way the world could go in the future.
