This was a really, really solid novella. And I'm so glad I listened to the audiobook instead of tracking down a physical copy because the narrator added so much. Her performance was great, and I think hearing the Gulluh parts added a lot.
As for the story, it was solid, especially for its length. All the characters felt real, the pacing was so tight, and the plot was great. The atmosphere was nice and spooky and the horrors... oh the horrors. The themes are used so perfectly. Genuinely a brilliant novella. One day I'll listen to it again when I can give it the full attention it deserves.
