Okey so you better read this, it's an amazing recollection of stories. Everyone is bound to find at least one to their liking and probably more.
My review consists of me just praising Eric's work so be prepared to a shit-ton of fanboying.
What I actually like about this is that you can choose and read 20 stories in an afternoon or actually take the time and read three or four a day and digest every story, savour them. gee you can even red them to your children as bedtime stories (by the way i would love someone to read them to me till i fell asleep). You can read them while you wait to take the bus/train/subway or while sipping at some tea. They are so short and enjoyable you can make read breaks from your studies and read a couple of them and not feel like you have wasted a lot of time... because you haven't and you read two or three FULL stories.
Above all what i love is the spectrum of stories we have in the book, from hardcore fantasy to sci-fi going through horror and all of them with variations in the styles of narrative and how things are portrayed, including some uncommon first person narrators. Also... you can know how an... ogre or troll (i can't remember now) feels/thinks, how cool is that? (saSSY CHARACTERS)
Another extremely good thing is how original the stories are... it's just mind blowing how someone could come across such wild ideas and put them into words in a way it makes them all the more wild and fantastical. I don't want to spoil any but read them you will find it soon enough. Seriously dude you are awesome.
Another good point is you can read them like... i don't know 10 times and i can assure you you will find them as delightful Every. Single. Time. (If it's not the case... fight me.
As an extra if the paperback edition ever comes to exist just picture having this in your bookshelves and casually passing by picking it reading one random story leaving it... and you didn't got late to your appointment... or got your food burned to ashes. CAN'T YOU SEE HOW GREAT THAT IS!?
i hope you all found my review compelling and appealing and over all i hope you start reading this because i got you all worked up about it.
