harmony's review

3.0

A decent collection of stories, most of these reached from decent to delightful. The notable exception is the two part story by Heather Jarman. The writing felt laboured and the story lacked impact. I didn't realize until afterward, but she was also the author of the String Theory book I despised for largely the same reasons. Bookending the anthology with her work was a mistake. The next weakest story was The Secret Hearty of Zolaluz. The rest were much better, and the anthology is provably worth buying for the same of the rest.
