Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: The main plot of the novella is Jones attempt to get Orana safely home. He does accomplish that (even though it appears to have been a mistake) so the story really does have a plot.
Once Jones reaches the "Castle Shell," the story becomes interesting.
Con: The introductory sections with WWI battles are tedious, and they go on and on and on.
