A review by mattie
McSweeney's #10 Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales (McSweeney's #10) by Michael Chabon

The premise of this is really cool -- stories that are about something, plotty and genre-y. The execution runs a little hot and cold. Some of the stories are really cool and engaging, some not so much. I was actually pretty impressed by Dave Eggers's showing (a story about a woman climbing Mount Kilimanjaro). Also includes stories by Neil Gaiman, Kelly Link, Sherman Alexie, and Michael Chabon, who also complied the book.
