To be honest, I'm not sure how to rate this book. It is a
collection of short stories by four different authors, and I think each story
is an introduction to another collection by the same author. Two 5 stars plus
two 1 stars averages out to 3. It brings two authors down, and builds two up,
but I'm not sure what else to do.
I loved two, and couldn't finish two. One I couldn't finish,
I did jump to the end to read the last couple of pages, and was glad I hadn't
spent my time on it.
I enjoyed the worlds of the two I loved, although I thought
Ms. Briggs's was by far the best developed.
I'm not sure these are true short stories. At the average
length, I'd call them novellas. All I can say is, caveat emptor.
