INTERMEDIATE FICTION

Saving Thanehaven

(4) 4-6 After Rufus, a piece of malware, convinces him to abandon his role in a swords-and-sorcery computer game, Noble the Slayer discovers freedom means computer chaos and leads an anti-virus rescue. Though frequent scene changes and lengthy descriptions slow the pace, characters and action are spot on as real and virtual events interplay in this quirky, part-metaphorical depiction of a computer crash from the inside.
