Review by: THG StarDragon Publishing on Jan. 24, 2013 : star star star star star
I loved this piece, it had me crying as I've made some hard decisions of my own in life. Distant Song suits her name, or the name suits her. I especially enjoyed the description of how a storm can be undone.

Review by: Eric Hinkle on Feb. 16, 2011 : star star star star star
This story is somewhat rare for Micah's work; it is a tragedy. Short and well told, it is the story of what price Distant Song is willing to pay to defend the mortals under her care and their mayfly lives. It seems almost too short to be as good as it is, or to show us as much as it does of Le'enle culture and psychology, but then again, this is M.C.A. Hogarth, and she is one of the better F&SF writers you will find.

I wholeheartedly recommend this work.
