It was indeed very good. It's not necessary to read Saturn's Children beforehand. Recommended.

Next I went to read my earliest unread InterZone only to find I'd read it. So I quickly moved on to Asimov's SF, September 2014 edited by Sheila Williams. I found one of the longer stories unreadable, but it was brought up to average overall by some excellent shorter works.

I then read Harvest Moon by Mercedes Lackey and two others. Three excellent Novellas. Very enjoyable fantasies.

And now I'm reading The Reluctant Swordsman by Dave Duncan, one of the recent Humble Bundle.

(And in case anyone's wondering about the sudden rush of books finished, I accidentally missed my stop on the train, and because of train timings and delays I had an extra four hours of reading yesterday.... a very good reason to take an ebook reader instead of a paperback!)
