Russell Zimmerman, you actually made me get a little angry at the start of your story, so thoroughly did I get immersed in the story. Great to read more about one of the Street Legends.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Sterling! As always, anthologies are by nature a mixed bag; not some good and some bad, but many different things written by many different people, based on different aspects of the setting (in this anthology more than most!). That's going to lead to some stories really hitting the spot for certain folks, while others fall flat. I think it's just the nature of a collection, y'know?
At any rate, though, I'm glad I fell on the "hit the spot" side of things, instead of the falling flat.
The kind words and the review are much appreciated.
