It may take two days for me to complete my initial review. I will note/pass items as I go along. You don't need to wait for me to finish to begin addressing them. Most of my comments are open for discussion, so feel free to question anything. Once complete, I will be claiming points for this review in the

Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
No concerns in Lead, Plot, Publication, or Reception. Fantastic job.
"He described the effect of "The Student" as indescribably moving" - variations of describe get used in close proximity here. I think it would read better as "He said the effect..."
Good call on the 'described as indescribably' bit; that didn't even occur to me! I'll look into subsequent publications over the next few days and let you know when I figure something out. Thanks for the review!
