Reception
"Covenant" was a finalist for the 2015 Locus Award for Best Short Story.[1] SF Signal considered it to be 'suspenseful' and 'fairly riveting', with '(a)n interesting premise'.[2] Daniel Keys Moran stated that the story made him "wish [he] were a member of SFWA, so [he] could vote [for it] on the Nebulas."[3]
