I can appreciate it is well-written, but my brain hurts. I am just not smart enough for this much metallurgical lingo. I agree with Brian's review - it really had potential, but I wanted the payoff.

There’s some really interesting ideas in this one, but I don’t fully understand it. I think I wanted a bigger burst of understanding at the end, something to really make the lead up click into place. But the things I could understand were cool so that’s worth something to me. I’m really enjoying my journey through these Tor short stories (novellas?).
