Posted on Sun, 13 Mar 2016

I really like this - very descriptive and I like the circular construction.  Genuine feeling of malice and the pacing works really well. 

I think it needs a bit of proof reading - there are some bits I had to read over a couple of times to...

Enjoyed this - fun and great imaginative use of the names.  I thought the beginning was strong and you kept the pace up well.  It seemed to lose a little of the life when we got to the section where the apes appear - I got the impression you...
