So here I go - loved this story! Loved the hints of despair and terror and tenderness we can glimpse in John even through Sam's little kid POV. I think this verse is one of the best uses of an adolescent POV I've read. Sam is trying to make sense of his world, while we try to see beyond Sam.
Really tragic the way those two never quite connected. Please say that the Sparta summer will be endless. Not great for Sam, but I don't want this to be the end. Selfish, I know.

Also -- thanks for posting the YouTube links of the river in flood. It really explains why John was as freaked out as he was.
