Sally Green did an impressive job combining the view points of three characters in such a short story. We have the chance to read about Gabriel's past, goals and opinions based on not only his own actions, but those around him as well. As I finished the short, I realized I wanted more, but we'd come upon the time his story was put into Half Bad. I'd love to read more shorts in this storyline.
