It is a shame it has had to end, but then all things do. Thank you for a thrilling and well-written story and I hope you will soon be back with a new one. Well done, five stars.
You have caught both her auctorial tone and O's character quite well, I should think. Kudos.
The one quibble I have with the work involves the last two paragraphs in this final installment, from where it says "Sometimes it is better..." until the end of the story. They seem a discordant element, spoken not as the narrator would, but perhaps by the author in his own voice. I would have been far happier had they been clearly delineated as being apart from the story (perhaps by having been placed in italics,) presuming they were ever truly a necessary part of the story at all.
Still one minor artistic glitch is not enough to really reduce your score. Although, if the system here permitted more nuance, I might award you a 4.9 instead of a 5.
I enjoyed the writing, but clearly few others were interested. A bit sad, as i was aiming for a more literate kind of story, which I have seen occasionally on this site. Perhaps the market is yet to develop.
Thanks for the support, those who have taken the time to read and comment.
