Chapter 7: Sarah is engrossing. Talk about a professional-sounding voice, seriously. Every writer so far has done a great job, and this particular segment has made me very curious as to the ultimate conclusion of the story. Plus, I had to think about exactly what may be coming up based on the new information, nothing was handed to me, something that is always preferable (when I do my own little hobby writing, I have a hard time with that; I tend to tell instead of show, as they say).

As Demeter implied with the mention of something like Axe, it's always entertaining to see the use of cultural touchstones in writing; King I believe has made that point as it concerned writers like Bradbury (and, of course, King is a master at placing stuff with which we are all familiar within his paragraphs).
