A review by benburns
The Assimilated Cuban's Guide to Quantum Santeria by Carlos Hernandez

2.0

There are a few delightfully weird gems in this short story collection - like the one with religious terrorists attacking panda reproductive robot suits, or the one where aliens turn a truck into Margaret Thatcher - that showcase the author’s wild imagination. But it’s all weighed down by clunky writing and lots of characters saying things no one would ever say. Plus a fair amount of tell-not-show. 2.5 stars (I feel guilty about that rating though because a I can tell a lot of love went into the writing. Wish there was a “rate privately” feature.)
