1.0
Overall 1.5 Stars. Pretty disappointed in this purchase. But, I learned a lesson... no more preordering books unless I'm familiar with all (or most) of the authors. I thought an anthology would give me a chance to try a bunch of new-to-me authors, but it back-fired on me. Here's the break down of the 6 stories in this book though~
GoldEN Braids and Dragon Blades = 3.5 Stars. My favorite story in the book. (Why did they make the "en" in Golden capital?) I'd read more from this author.
Of Tinkers and Technomancers = 3 stars. I liked the romance elements.
Airship X = 0 stars. Had to DNF because the writing didn't work for me.
City of Light and Steam = 0 stars. Another DNF. This one is written like a soap opera and I strongly dislike that style.
Ensnared = 2.5 stars. Not bad, but not for me. I don't feel I was the target audience for this one.
Love Like Clockwork = 0 stars. Yet another DNF. I just didn't like it.
