The Fold almost could have been a Black Mirror episode, where Dead Moon was more an off-the-wall space-horror B-movie. Clines has a talent for bringing life to characters who, yes, are big ol' walking tropes in many respects, but somehow end up more 3-dimensional (or 5 or 6 dimensional, in some cases) than they have any right to be.
I agree with you on Clines, as I love the Threshold series. I must also give huge credit to Ray Porter who is fantastic narrating these stories! I haven't started Terminus yet, but I am dying to, but I am in the middle of The Dark Tower, so it may be awhile.
