Summary: War is the child's emptiness, the surrender of identity, the transformation into a simple system: purpose goes in, action comes out. (Natalia Alianovna Romanova, and everything that she became.)

Review: Natasha's voice in this is just amazing! Fahye manages to keep it solid, despite the fact that the story follows Natasha from a young age through when she joins up with S.H.I.E.L.D. and beyond.

She's paranoid but a realist. And her relationship with Clint is just so warm and fuzzy, without losing it's spy vs. spy edge.
