  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No

The story was great. C L Moore was an excellent sci fi writer. 

My problem was finding this version of Shambleau, with just 50 pages. I could only find a collection called Shambleau and Others which is an anthology of nearly 200 pages. It's frustrating too because there is a digital version of Shambleau and Others that just lists it as Shambleau on Amazon and library websites.
