A nice little snapshot of Dante
March 20, 2016
Really good short, getting to see into Dante was awesome, as well as getting to see some of his past.
The only thing I didn't like was that 1. It wasn't a full novel, and 2. some of the terms used in the short felt really weird and just rubbed me the wrong way. It's like the author made up the words to make it sound more complex, and while it did, it also just sounded kinda... off?
