A review by shonatiger
Accessing the Future by Kathryn Allan, Djibril Al-Ayad
3.0
Very pleased with this anthology, not because it’s particularly fantastic — it’s just pretty good — but because there’s so much nuance, and realism, and room for failure, both for characters and also for the authors. This isn’t one of your pandering anthologies, and definitely isn’t here for your inspiration; it’s just here to exist, and I love it for that.
That said, the stories were a mix of really good, not-so-great, and meh. But that’s because I enjoyed some concepts, was completely confused by others, and found a few that really didn’t impress me. That’s a good thing! This anthology is disability-themed, it’s not about disability.
My favourites:
• Better To Have Loved, by Kate O’Connor. I seem to really like stories about loss, going by recent reviews
