The Siphon - one of the longer stories in the collection. This is a slow-burner, but once it takes off it's an absolute banger. Another story with a PoS main character. There's definitely a theme.

The Carrion Gods In Their Heave - another story that didn’t go the way I expected. This is a short one, but I appreciated what Barron managed in so few words. Plus the body horror.

Hand of Glory - this is a longer story than the others. It gives Barron more room to tell a more intricate story and give the setting more meat.

Like the earlier stories, this feels a bit like it started slowly only for me to be halfway through and things are suddenly bonkers.

We’re 2/3 stories with scumbag MCs.

Blackwood's Baby - great story. It hits some of my weird fiction sweet spots.
