Dustin the wind Crazy little brown owl's Reviews > Wilderness

I re-read this short story in 2020 for the third time. I forgot about reading it for the second time in 2017, but have memories of my first experience in 2013 and the strong opinions I had.

The reason for re-reading in 2020 is the selection of Innocence as The Koontzland - Dean Koontz January Group Read. I wanted to go into this with an open-mind. I don't feel as strongly opposed to the stories that didn't go the way I wanted to in 2013.

I am keeping my initial 2-star rating for Wilderness meaning "It was okay". I maintain my initial feelings that Wilderness is simply too short and that humanity is better than represented here. It does serve to open the door to Innocence which I look forward to revisiting after more than 6 years of closing the book with less than appreciation.
