City by Clifford D. Simak
4.0

3.5 stars. There was a lot to swallow here – this was nearly as much fantasy as SF. The two genres are rarely mixed this way. Once I suspended my disbelief (mostly: there were still some things that didn’t make sense or were underexplained and a fair bit of unfortunate handwavium), I enjoyed each story individually, and the work as a whole. The commentary was just the right length, and there was a sense of wonder in the way the dogs were uplifted and in how much time passed.
