Status Updates From The Best of Roger Zelazny

The Keys To December - 3.5.
Reading the dust line like "is the protagonist... A catboy??"

The Great Slow Kings - 3/5. Did cause me to chuckle once or twice

The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth - 2/5, the writing in this one for some reason was unbearable to me

Permafrost is like 3.5 stars maybe

Loki 7281 is 5/5, very topical with all the smart homes and AI-written books being the actual reality right now

Home is the Hangman - 4 out of 5,another interesting exploration of that step the artificial intelligence has to make to become real intelligence

He Who Shapes is almost a 5 star. Can't help but commend the prose: it adds to the dream-like unsettling atmosphere of Render's descent

For a Breath I Tarry: 4 stars, now more than ever musings about the distinction between humanity and sentient machines occupy our minds, and as usual art is a significant part of that conversation.

Divine Madness is 4 stars, a short but vivid story about grief and regret

Damnation Alley - 3 stars

3 stars for A Rose For Ecclesiastes
