Octavia's Brood: Science Fiction Stories from Social Justice Movements by Walidah Imarisha, adrienne maree brown

3.0

This book gets 5 stars for ambition and intent. I gave it 3 because, while some of the fiction writing and stories are very good (most of those seem to occur during the last half to third of the book)there were many that just weren't that good even though I really wanted to like them all. That said, I am glad I read this book and look forward to more books like it from the editors.

Spoiler Note: If you have not read all of Octavia Butler's books, you may want to skip the last essay in the book or skip over the parts that reference the books you have not read yet like me. It contains a lot of spoilers.
