Before anybody asks, yep, this is the end (well, sort of) to the ‘Pretty Things’ series. I may do something with it off-site, but this is how I always intended it to finish. Whew.
You know, I confess to having read this hit-and-miss over the last couple of months, but re-reading it now from front to back – this is one hell of a narrative. I commend you for seeing this through and creating such good characters. This one’s title rolls nicely off the tongue, too.
I think this is a nice send-off to a great series. Leaves some questions open, but we have the sense that the good guys won out in the end. Is Agent Lefleur based on Al from Die Hard? I only ask because of the Twinkie. =P
Nice wrap-up. Gives nice closure. And if I may be so bold as to make a suggestion? If you have a good bit of time, I’d suggest you extend this (possibly) to a novel. It’d be really good! Or you could save it for April to use during Script Frenzy. But overall, well done on this series. PS to JP: That’s where sequel-weavin comes in, my friend!
Actually, when I picture Agent Lefleur he’s based on this guy: http://www.brianthompson.com/television.htm The whole twinkies and soda thing is more of a nod to my brother who would celebrate milestones with Little Debbie Zebra cakes and red soda. That didn’t seem quite tough enough, and harder to write, so I went with Twinkies and Ginger Ale.
