4.5

Overall I really enjoyed this anthology! I even doubled back and reread the stories The Golden Dragon and Best Server Cold. Please check trigger warnings. This anthology was well put together. I read it on e-book and audio. The audio is top tier and really helped me immerse myself into the stories in an unexpected way.
