The Tangleroot Palace by Marjorie M. Liu
4.0
adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

I loved all of these short stories but one. The first four captured me in mere sentences while the fifth left me feeling sluggish. The one titled After The Blood stood out from the others but not in a good way. It felt starkly different in tone and atmosphere than the others, and if I’m being honest the sixth one stuck out a bit as well. Overall I would recommend this with a warning of the last two stories feeling different than the rest. The first story alone is worth a read.
