Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Review: 2019.263 (A Word for Authors)
Pro: Tater seems like a nice young woman, and it’s good to see people working together to build the world up again.
Con: It’s got too many details without enough explanation, and then it just ends abruptly. It’s possible this is meant as a taste of a larger work that could do these themes justice.
