I need more! More Tam. More Daniel. More Jillian and Eugie.

This novella is SO different from Kage's usual style. I loved the snark and wit in his other works, and I was not sure I would like this one as much. I was wrong. Completely and utterly wrong. This story was lyrical, sweet, and heart-rending. I loved how I felt just as lost as Daniel in the beginning, then slowly began to realize what was happening. I enjoyed meeting the characters one by one and getting to know them individually. I feel that Daniel and I both would have been overwhelmed by meeting them all at once.

This is definitely a story I'll be reading over and over.
