I usually steer clear of horror and short stories, so this wouldn't be my first choice of book, but I'm quite pleased I decided to read it. The stories are quite dark, confusing, and chilling that sometimes I rushed to end or had to put the book down altogether to take a break & process what I had just read. Some stories have surprising twists.

My favorite story was Ruler of Winds and Sands. It's also the most palatable story out of the book with the fewest horror elements. There are so many themes and complexities in these shorts that I'd like to give them all a re-read at some point.
