Hi Tanith. What a wonderful Sci-fi story! I enjoyed being taken away for a while to Port Cordial, the official lunar tourist hub. I felt that your story read smoothly and it captivated my attention. I especially enjoyed the opening, with the AI controlled lighting system.

You did a great job with your descriptions, as you did with describing the lighting making the room seem like it were a dimming summer evening, rather than the true, dull gray moon surface.

The subject of your story interested me. I always enjoyed libraries. I'm sure everyone on our site has probably been in a library at one time or another. It was very creative of you to make sure there was a library in this futuristic space setting.

Here, we had the residents of this space center sitting down to chat with drinks. That part gave your story a 'real feel', in my opinion. I'm not sure if I ever read Watership Down. I probably did years ago. I thought it was a nice touch to add a book which we are all familiar with in some way in your story.

I chuckled when I read your paragraph where Spalding told the new guy, Patterson, how important books were, and how much could go wrong with databanks, computers and networks.
So true! I think we've all lost pictures and things that way. I think we all trust too much in this, 'cloud'! I am guilty of tossing my physical books and relying on my Kindle. Your story made me wonder if books will truly exist in the future. If there are people like Spalding, maybe the answer is yes.

I felt that your story had a great ending. It implied that Spalding made a believer out of Patterson. It really didn't take too much effort either! Nice work.
