Glow-worm by Wildbow
3.0
It's a bit hard to rate this one. Glow-worm is technically just a short interlude, a bridge between Worm And Ward. That means if you haven't read Worm, it won't make any sense, and in some ways it feels unnecessary. Maybe in context after I read Ward it will.
Nearly the entire arc is made up of online chat transcripts, mostly to do a bit of world building it would seem. Either way, I can't say I feel it was necessary, but I plan to read Ward soon so though it was worth having a go at it. It was a bit abstract and somewhat nonsensical to me, and I've read Worm twice. But given the series as a whole, I can't bring myself to give it lower than three stars. I just feel it would have been better either appended to Worm or prepended to Ward. As a standalone read it fails to convey anything.
