Rivers Run Free by Charles Payseur

If this is fantasy - give me more!

It was a terrific story which sheds a light on humanity’s exploitation of the Earth’s water resources.

Four rivers take human form and are on a quest to find the sea.  It was lovely, sad and served as a warning of a possible future.

Reading this confirmed a feeling that I’ve been having for quite some time; that we, humans, are at the limits of what our world can endure.  We must change our ways to live in harmony with the natural systems.  In this story, the rivers want that too.

Terrific stuff, very imaginative and cinematic.
