"Meet Me at the Gates" is a companion piece to an upcoming novel. It shows as the story ends on a cliffhanger and isn't the most satisfying read because of it. It's a teaser piece, perhaps almost a prologue, and works very well as one, but you're left wondering where the rest is. Who are the narrator and Joseph? How did they meet? (How did they avoid detection for as long as it sounds like?) What will happen next? (Will it really be what the narration implies? If not, how is it avoided?)
I admit that I was never truly drawn into the prose or the narrator's mindset, but that's actually par the course for me. The descriptions of the narrator's building anxiety and its resolution was well-done and the ending unexpected. It was a quick read, made the more unsatisfying by the knowledge that the novel itself isn't available yet, but I enjoyed it well enough. I just wish it'd been a bit longer or that the novel this accompanies was already available.

I felt to be standing near that couple; heartfelt, descriptive prose heightens the tension. A great read!
