I loved the stories so much. They were all good, but Prophet of Corruption was especially interesting. It gave me so much to think about, and I can't stop thinking about it. I also loved the letters from the translators at the end, from the beginning of the COVID19 pandemic. I hope they were able to meet up together like they wished! They truly did an incredible job translating some conceptually difficult stories in a way that I barely remembered I was reading a translated work.
