5.0

Extremely entertaining and thought-provoking collection of ecological science fiction. It's honestly hard to pick out the highlights with such a wide range of great ideas supporting great stories, but a few I liked the most include Claire McKenna's sly Jack and the Beanstalk riff with black market fungal stocks in "Mr Mycelium", D K Mok's optimistic post-flooding "The Wandering Library", Rivqa Rafael's intrepid vaccination squad in "Trivalent" and Shauna O'Meara's disaster-recovery-science reality television show in "Island Green". But ask me on a different day and I might give you four completely different faves - if this kind of near-future, cautiously optimistic SF is your bag at all, this whole collection is worth checking out.
