Gailey's two alternate histories, about the very real possibility that hippopotamuses would have been imported to ranches in the swamps of Louisiana, are more than enjoyable. I love Gailey’s writing and the way they tell a story, and they’re turning into my favorite writer.
Highly recommended for speculative fiction fans interested in something both funny and gory.
