Just finished “How’s the Night Life on Cissaldia” that was funny as fuck. Genuinely enjoyed. Very out there. My favourite bit was the shitty writer joke.

I really liked “How Interesting: A Tiny Man” and happened to read it right after visiting the Mary Shelley Frankenstein museum. I really enjoyed both endings, again the endings really made the whole story

Just finished “I’m Looking for Kadak” it was good and entertaining, but not super shocking or captivating like the other stories. I also couldn’t be arsed to look up all the Yiddish so some of it was lost on me

Just finished “The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World”

I enjoyed the structure and trying to work out what was happening, but that said I don’t entirely understand what the hell was going on

Just finished “Paladin of the Lost Hour” and I did really like it. It was slightly cliche but again I really liked the ending, and I’m glad Billy got closure. The commentary on equality was also very well done despite being subtle

Just finished “On the Downhill Side” I’ll be real, it was a bit too much like fantasy for me and wasn’t super interesting.

HOLY SHIIIIT “Mefisto in Onyx” WAS SO GOOD. The slow start with the anticipation of whether Spanning was innocent, just for that rollercoaster of the last 20 pages. Literally every twist got me. So good, jpint favourite with Repent, Harlequin
