Some quite unusual stories with interesting perspectives that provoke thought. The story about 7 identical engineered siblings makes one wonder about the wisdom of scientific involvement of that type. Recommended

Very good collection. I found them well thought-out and crafted, and I quite liked this examination of the ruthlessness of outside circumstances. As for the 'fabulist edge', I agree but liked the earlier stories better than the later, and I feel like that edge gets wider as we go along. This is not a comment on quality (they are good stories), but some collections read like "I write short stories as an end in itself because I love them" and others read like "I am writing these short stories to perfect them as practice for writing a novel." I feel like this belongs in the second group, and I generally prefer the first.
3.5?

I don’t know how I picked this up, but I am very glad that I did. These are nine tremendously varied and uniformly excellent stories. There’s John Milton, there’s a man with glass in his lungs, there’s a mermaid, there’s a girl who vanishes; more than half of them are on the sff side of the divide, and all of them are pretty magical. I usually find it difficult to write up short fiction collections, and this is no exception, but I really recommend it.… (mais)
