Unbound

An intriguing collection by quite a well respected set of fantasy and sci-fi authors. If nothing else the cause that this collection supports is worth some attention (helping pay for medical care for authors).

As with any collection there will always be some variability in the quality of the stories but there were no true stinkers in here - I found them all to be worth a read even if some were more engaging than others. The stand outs for me were generally the ones that took place in worlds I was already familiar with - it is challenging to do proper world building in a short story format! Some stories did give me an interesting short insight to worlds I want to explore - eg Brian Mclellans Powder Mage which has been bumped up my tbr as a result.

All in all an excellent collection that I can highly recommend!
