"Into the Copse: Kelly Link Asks, Jeffrey Ford Answers": 2/5 - aside from the brief, apocryphal background on writing a few of his stories and references to smoking joints and doing a special writing dance, not much to offer. Ford is charming and his humor carries this section as far as it will go, but it comes off as a little self-indulgent and very anticlimactic after the final entry in the collection.

"God of Ghosts": 5/5 - an intoxicating fairy tale about a minor god that would fit well into a Discworld book. A very cynical ending, unfortunately, but the commentary on religion redeems it.

"The world spins ever onward, dust to dust, rust to rust, rarely just. The administration of my duties is usually dispassionate and curt. I will admit to a few licks of malice through the centuries. When you have the power of a god, it’s so easy not to do the right thing."
Ford at his best--fantastic and vivid, but quietly profound and relatable.
