A surprising little story from Card

This is good writing. This review might sound a little esoteric, but I don't want to give any of the story away. It moves from outer world details to inner thoughts and reflections. I really enjoyed the structure of the story. If you want reduction at the end of a story, you may not like this one, though. It is kind of open-ended.
Rudnicki is great, as usual.

not what I expected

the first time I was ever disappointed by Orson.
the end was lacking. ended with no end.

Decent

Very, very short. Characters not very fleshed out. Mostly one-dimensional. We don't get to know any of them, except maybe the main character Deaver or Deever. Neat little sketch.
