Amazing short story collection! I absolutely loved every wild ride - and each of the stories really was a wild ride.

I'll certainly return to this book and reread my favourites again! I especially enjoyed "A Magnificent Spread", "Two's a Family", "Life Ceremony", "Body Magic", "Eating the City", and "Hatchling". Impressive to find so many favorites in a collection of short stories!
