What brought OctOGRE thIng meandering in a space time continuum over to your port?

*Pointright* I am a judge for the "Journey Through Genres: Official Contest" . Thanks for entering!

What does tHiNg think about while perusing your item?

*Cool**Idea* I thought about the amusing banter between these hapless burglars. At first it seems like Mort is the brains of the outfit and in many ways he is. However, Jimmy seems more in touch and intuitive - at least more observant of his surroundings and because of that he has a better time of it and more coping skills.

The foreshadowing is deliciously ominous.

The love of a kitty cat can be a very powerful force. I liked the plans for Marie, also. Jimmy presents a much more sympathetic character and Mort is the self-appointed leader of the expedition. He's a bit full of himself and needs his just deserts delivered in such a shocking and magical way, if you ask me. He ignores Jimmy's admonitions at his ultimate peril.

What does tHiNg applaud about while reading your item?

*Thumbsup* I thought your story was very well told and chillingly amusing, which goes right with reading it in this month leading up to Halloween. Your descriptions took me right there with you and all the dialogue seemed very true to character and situation, with many a chuckle at these inept thieves.

I enjoyed reading and contemplating Mort's ultimate fate. He'd better watch out in that tank. *Laugh*

Thanks again for entering the contest and giving me something funny to read!

P.S. My reviews are my reactions to what I have read. They are not meant to be harsh critiques or wildly critical editing forays because that is not what I enjoy here. I enjoy my reading and seeing what creativity writers bring to the table and I am pleased to read and review your work - well done! I appreciate the work and effort it takes to enter the site contest very much.

This review was written and stored in my review tool on the morning of October 5, 2019. It is to be sent out within 48 hours of when the winners are announced so if it is not timely in any respect, chalk it up to that delay. Whatever you do, don't blame anything on me. *Laugh*
