Fantastic pacing and I'm a softie for a sci-fi tale. Well done. (Jodi gives good advice too.) I was carried away and raced thru to the end. Fantastic pacing and I’m a softie for a sci-fi tale.

I am not a big sci-fi lover, but your story kept my interest and left me wanting more. Great job. This is an excellent piece of writing, Chris.

I thought the boy sounded a bit younger than 12, but I love that he had no idea his father was a soldier. Great suspenseful pace and description, too. I'd love to read lots more of this. Well done.

There better be more. Don't leave me hanging. Loved the way that they infiltrated the goverment and contoled the banks, farms and military. I also love how the schools and professors banned books and information from the youth like during the Cold War. I like it! There better be more. Don’t leave me hanging.

And looking foward to reading more on Tuesday. Excellent to see you writing regularly again.

I couldn't think of a single way to respond to the prompt, but the fictions I've read have been brilliant - yours, in particular! Neat take on the concept of a Cold war. Very nicely done.

The first draft had Danny at six, the second had him at eighteen. I settled on 12 because i wanted to explore his development into adulthood further on in the story. I guess I didn't pluck out all the six year old aspects out of his voice. You'll get a few more details in further installments. Good catch Jodi.
