There's been a lot of discussion online over the last year about the quality of what are called indie published books by their proponents and disparagingly called self-published books by the publishing, agenting, and critical establishment. You can probably tell from the title of this post as well as how I worded the previous sentence which side of the issue I come down on.
So, rather than simply discuss the merits of the story and the writing itself in this novella, which I will do, I'd like, begging the indulgence of the author and artists, to go beyond that and discuss the qualities of the publishing as well.
