Wow. I enjoyed this collection so much! I’m at a loss for words. The feelings I had while reading were joy, wonder, anger, awe, dread, amusement, and others that I can’t articulate. I’ve never FELT a book as much as this one. If you want to spend time in a place beyond yourself that’s full of all these emotions wrapped up in the most amazing writing, then get this book and read it.

His particular signature is the seamlessly transitions between everyday reality and the fantastic, in a way that it's impossible not to get related to. His characters breathe, are diverse, have a lot of conflicts, and Phil doesn't restrain to push them to their limits. Absolutely stunning tales.
