Uncertainty Shared

Very well read. Fascinating on increasingly expanding levels. Will listen often, reliving the experience.

A mysterious and thrilling short story

I picked it up because a love Mary's writing. It was a very enjoyable, mysterious and thrilling science fiction short story. Narration was also great.

Very good as far as it goes.

Very good as far as it goes. The story is set up to be excruciatingly detailed, And sometimes that causes it to feel a little slow. Ends on an ambiguity.

More short stories please MRK!!

Intriguing, couldn't guess what was gonna happen next or how it was gonna end. I'll be thinking about this story for a long time.

No Regrets

Enjoyed Allyson Johnson's narration of the story, really brought it to life!

The story itself, while I can't say anything was particularly bad about it, I can say I've heard better. That being said I would none the less recommend it to a friend. I found Kowal's world building to be immersive and the story exciting and even a bit nerve racking at times.

Definitely worth a listen =)

A good story

This is a good story from a great series that unfortunately they stopped writing any stories. We follow the main character as they meet a character who is more than they appear to be. It was an interesting story that will leave the reader asking deeper questions.

IF YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION

MAYBE HE WAS WORKING FOR THE DEER.
This was one of the stories from METAtropolis green. I read the first book in the series and was not impressed. I love John Scalzi, but his friends can't write. Kowal had a great story in Rip-Off called The Lady Astronaut of Mars. I then read Kiss Me Twice in a Short Novel anthology and could not finish it. This I could finish, but barely. The story is that this woman takes movies and tells stories about simple things she does on earth and sells them to people who never leave their homes. She was filming deer cross the road when the story starts. From then on it is blah, blah, blah. She slowly tries to remember what happened as she tells the story and she is extremely detailed to the point of nausea.

Skip this and skip the series.
