(This is a review for The Masochist's Assistant only; I listened to it on PodCastle and fell too far in love not to leave a review)

I really loved this!!! It's so rare to find character-driven, fun short stories with happy endings. There was a complex world in this story that came across seamlessly, and I loved both main characters equally. The ending was satisfying while still leaving a great deal open to the imagination. So well written!
