This story is a bit adolescent compared to Harrison's later work, and depends too much on a thin plot followed by addled characters to no great end. But readers who enjoy Brown Dog and the obsessed sport fishermen in JH's better fiction won't be too disappointed to see how far the Harrison recipe for interestingly extreme entertainment has come since this earlier story. An unreliable narrator fairly well acquainted with his own character defects makes for a pretty good story-telling companion for a while.
