All of these are so diverse and fascinating! Number IV, All the World, is the one I like best. John's isolation is as complete as it can be, like Frankenstein's creature.

III, Belly of the Beast, boggles me a bit, but I really like the idea that life can exist inside a budong, persistent despite the massively high temperatures. And poor John's lost his marbles. Also, really, really icky setting, well-described.

I thought the first section might be set in The Locket, so it was neat to see it was post-PKW, and fairly sad that John and Aeryn had had to abandon their past in order to make a life together.

Aeryn Rising - odd journey with no beginning or end, but interesting in the grouping and unknown purpose.

And then the last, John and Chiana running, surviving, fugitives in a shrinking, tightening net. And Scorpius, at the last, still determined that John is the one who will stop all this. At least, that's what I get from his final words - Run, John. Live. As long as John's alive, there's a chance he'll do what he has to, ( ... )

You read fast!

Also, I am a little in love with your icon. Perfect.

I am glad you liked - I didn't *want* to tell whole stories, and yet, it feels a little like a cheat, to have things just dangling out there.

I am looking forward with some interest to see which ones other people pick as faves. As the mom author, of course, I love them each and all.

Oooh, neat. I'll have to read them again later (fic at work is bad, bad cofax bad). Very creative and evocative.

(You may want to run a search&replace for "Suzuki"->"Sikozu". Unless that's intentional, but I couldn't discern a pattern.)

It wasn't intentional. Thanks for the catch.

Thank you for reading!

Lordy, I am finding *all kinds* of comment I missed. I'm so sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

Thank you so much for your indepth comments - I really appreciate you taking the time to respond like this.

AR was the first one I wrote, ages and ages ago, and because it has froggie, in some ways it is my favorite, too.

I'm glad to hear the tension worked - I was trying to write 'faster' more intense stories, and I guess it worked, somewhat.

The confusion in 'Belly" is...well, let's just say that maybe that bit could have been done better. And the answer to your question is 'yes'. *g*

Again, thanks *so much* for your kind words. I'm very glad you enjoyed it!
