A mixed bag this month. The novella,
Byzantine was very good. Of the three novelets,
Stepsister and
Who Carries the World were very good, but I didn't really like
Birds Without Wings. Of the six short stories,
Eyes of the Forest,
An Indian Love Call,
In the Eyes of Jack Saul and
Another F*cken Fairy Tale were all very good.
Warm Math was another OK-ish take on the Cold Equations.
Hornet and Butterfly I just didn't like. The science fact article,
Star Link, Star Junk was excellent.
On the whole, a good issue.
Next up:
World Divided by Mercedes Lackey et al. The second in her "Secret World Chronicles" series. I read the first back in 2014, and it was OK, but I remember nothing about it. We'll see if the second volume make me interested in the rest, or whether I should abandon the series.
