This was the first piece I read by Diamond. I decided to give it a try because he seems to like a lot of the same authors I do, and this looked interesting. And I enjoyed it, thought he captured the mental decline of Devane really well. Oh, and his naming of Devane was quite clever too.

It was very well written. The author has a nice steady rhythm and towards the end I pretty much figured it out how it was going to end, but I still enjoyed seeing it play out.

This story had a very interesting premise, and like Diamond's "Wind Tunnel" I'd like to see it developed more deeply - more about the world around him, his interactions with his environment, etc.

I kept reading because I wanted to find out what happened to everyone else, so the ending was disappointing.
