About the Story

Five Minutes to Midday: being the story of a man with a bomb, his political vendetta, and no small number of goats.

Change takes time. Ever since he set foot back in London, he has fought to end the injustice he suffered. The press may be mute, the public may be deaf, and the devils may be cruel - but change will come.

Any minute now.

I'm not sure how to start talking about Five Minutes to Midday. I think that's because I don't have a lot of thoughts about themes or some over-arching idea. It's a solid story, if somewhat unremarkable in terms of plot. There are some mechanical experiments that I like but they're tied up some ideas that aren't necessarily bad, but that run counter to modern convention for the exceptional stories, making them opaque for current players.
