Okay,stop. I haven't read anything this good in ages. I keep rating these stories a 5 because I can't decide which one is best. One last story to gooooooo.....

Very well-written and thought-provoking. Excellent story!

Apologies, I forgot all about this. Interesting, Terminator style use, from the book I figured the cyborg would have a past something like this one. Kudos on the research, the setting feels very WWI, like watching history. It'd be a cool little piece to add as an extra to any new prints of your book :) The pedant in me had one small problem: the constant use of 'it', there are ways of writing around the use of the word and not starting sentences with 'It' may help break it up. Examples: "51823 had recognized a scar on the forearm, and it knew then that it was "his" arm, the arm of its human self" "and its logic circuits had gone round and round trying to resolve it. Its one hope rested in the theory of alternate timelines. It theorized that a causal paradox cannot exist and something cannot prevent its own creation"

Good mix of science fiction and action. It is thought provoking as it deals with time/history change.
