I was delighted to find a new collection of Bear's stories focusing on DCI Abigail Irene Garrett, and each of these five short works was a delight to read. I truly hope to see more stories set in this world, even if Bear has seemed to have closed the stories of DCI Garrett and Don Sebastien. Ruth Grell and Sean Cuan, among others, surely have some adventures to recount for future volumes.

Read as part of the Kindle collection.

Short stories filling in more of Abigail Irene's background--an excellent companion to the more solidly linked tales of New Amsterdam.

I was so happy to find some more stories about DCI Garrett--she's a fascinating character and I love the alternate history Bear sets up in the earlier collection, "New Amsterdam." I'd love to read more about this character and her world!

For me, this was a great place to leave this series of novellas - a lot of Abby Irene and her interactions with some compelling side characters.

5 or 6 last stories collected from the world of New Amsterdam. Most of them centered on Abigail Irene. It was nice to see her one last time.

Impossible to give any book of Abby Irene stories a less than perfect rating.

Bundled with #1, so I read this first. Confusing!
