In darkness, yes darkness, I found light so sweet that the future, shadowed and shifting, offered a glimpse into what must be - will be.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm impressed by the range of articles on offer-- it's good to see spots devoted to things like music and alternative religions in a style of magazine that doesn't otherwise spread the net so widely.

Overall, it read like a popular magazine-- light, varied, and a good way to get a small taste of a lot of aspects.; ▶ Reply to This
