Summary
The world as we know it has ended in plague. Only two men seem to have survived, traveling alone, forging a bond that one considers love and the other considers convenience. Until another survivor, a young woman, is added to the mix. How far will one man go for love...?
My Review
I like how Mark Allan Gunnells manages to create characters with substance in such a short format, injecting horrifying little twists and keeping the reader on edge. For that reason, I always look forward to reading his stories.
This one, however, was way too short for me to develop any feelings about the characters. The twist wasn’t especially surprising either.
After I reached the conclusion, my feelings ended up being similar to the story’s narrator.
“I felt nothing. Not guilt, not horror at my actions, but no particular pleasure either.”
