I thought about a third of these stories were fantastic - obviously "Greasy Lake," but also a couple others that seemed to deal with the same kinds of characters and themes. I absolutely hated a few of these stories, though. I really didn't like when he strayed too far from what seams to be a more familiar setting for him.

I only actually read The New Moon Party for a project. It was alright.
