Thanks to Tor.com, I’ve been on a free sci-fi novella kick. This book added four more to the 9 I’ve read this past year or so. In addition, I’ve been aiming for a wider diversity of SF authors, so I’ve been reading Chinese sci-fi, Africanfuturism, and now this set with LGBT protagonists. The current collection is a pretty fun range. Here’s the short overview: one preachy, but fun punk horror story--the most political (Killjoy); one charming and loosely magical realist piece set it San Francisco--the most historical (Klages); one richly detailed diachronic saga--the most anthropological (Wilson); and one Asian-influenced empire fantasy, with ambiguous pronouns and great world building--the most sociological (Yang). (For the latter, I suggest that if you want to sell readers on singular "they", you not have twin protagonists! That said, I sought out and enjoyed the rest of the trilogy.) Altogether, a great set of new authors to pursue.
