So far, from the first three stories only the second was somewhat original. Parasitic Embrace was frankly disappointing, indistinguishable from dozens of other similar stories. A Withering of Sorts had a bit more meat than Parasitic Embrace, but was likewise very generic. The Equivalence Principle wins points for the premise, which I will not spoil here.

All right, Goldilocks Zone was much better than the ones preceding it. The premise is good ("we made the hard places soft") and was well executed. At times it reminded me of an episode of Invader ZIM, the Halloween episode to be precise, but since I love Invader ZIM that was a plus.
They Wait Below was well written, but again I'm afraid suffers from being very generic. So in all, the anthology seems to be improving.
