I agree with Alisanne - this would make a terrific longer story - or maybe I'm just greedy because this was sooo good. Great, creepy atmosphere, a chilling foe (brilliant combination too), a believably idiotic government that believes it can control its own experiements only to doom themselves...and some great lines - "You leave a note when you are going to get groceries, not when you’re going off to get yourself killed!”
I loved reading this but would bow down and beg to get even more!!
