This isn’t to say that every story rang the bell, but the ones that did… really did. But, anyway, let me talk about a few of these now… Ranging from fantasy to literary to science fiction, there is something in this collection that anyone can take away and enjoy. I’ve listed a few of my favorites and really the ones of note here, but really you need to read the whole thing. Yet, what really proves that this anthology is worth your time is just how damn rich and versatile Jemisin’s writing is. (As if her three Hugos left any doubt.)Įach story in this anthology showcases how strong a voice she has and each narrative exemplifies the issues she cares about and how much feeling is wrapped up in each of these. There are some stories I have read or heard of before and there are even some stories in here that seem to be precursors to her BROKEN EARTH trilogy and others. Jemisin’s new collection of short fiction. If you couldn’t tell already, but I’ve been on a bit of an anthology kick this year and there was no way I was going to miss out on N.K.
