Fun story, great details, and some really nice writing.

What an absolutely lovely, fun, and extremely well-written book!

The funniest story I've read in years, and with such heart.

The descriptions of the natural world surrounding Anne are... sublime. Lucy Montgomery's writing should be taught as the pinnacle of its particular kind of author/narrator storytelling.

A better than average issue, with interesting stories by Fiona Moore, Ng Yi-Sheng and Fu Qiang.

Really sweet story, and the only time ever a scene has been hot while described in clinical detail.

It's absolutely beautiful, with delicate, precise writing that perfectly encapsulates a sense of place, of culture, of magic.

What a fantastic 'Weird West', magic, action, adventure tale!

This carefully constructed alternative Western story is populated with interesting, but not always likeable, characters. The magic is strange and unpredictable, and is very much part of the world, not added on top.

While a YA fantasy, the book never shies away from addressing the very real violence and horror of genocide.

I admit this was my first time reading a zombie book. The zombie genre hasn't always been my favorite in film and television, so I wasn't keen on reading a zombie book. But Frisch has a medical background and that made this book very interesting, as it revolved around a hospital. Very enjoyable, my only regret was that I didn't immediately read the next book so now I have to re-read it. :)

A fascinating and entertaining book about living on a world in a universe where people can come in different scales.

A better than average issue with a long, strange, tale of travel to another world that may yet be ours by Tim Lees, Eugenia Triantafyllou and ending with a tale of a timely intervention by Val Nolan that may yet make America great again in a different way.

An average issue with some interesting stories by Eugie Foster, Nick Dichario, Auston Habershaw, Maiga Doocy and J. A. Pak.

Another interesting Hard SF read by Egan. It's not as mind-bending or physics-bending as his "Orthogonal" series but contains intriguing ideas and characters. In contrast to his previous books where the characters slowly learn (and educate the reader about) the physics of their environment, here they are already well versed in the strange (to us) geometry of their universe and its consequences.
