I thought this program was a classic CBSRMT adaptation. The dialogue and the first person telling of the tale worked to perfection for me. This is the first time I'd heard Kevin McCarthy in a CBSRMT program and I thought he was excellent He must have been a very established actor (Invasion of the Body Snatchers) by the time he did this play and his dramatic ability shines in radio as well as the on big screen.

Our main character exhibited the classic traits of good and evil. As a young teen, his willingness to defend his future mate proved that he was both courageous and impetuous. As a young adult, this impetuous attitude led him to regrets and his greedy attempt for a quick fix turned horribly wrong when he made a deal with a monster. In the end, he was very fortunate to learn this lesson while returning to his original form. But we have to wonder, what really happened to the monster? Is he out there making another deal with someone who will be less fortunate?
