- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated

cathepsut's review against another edition
3.0
"A Distant Sun", 3 stars: Explains the origins of the pelted universe a little. Pretty sad.
"Rosettes and Ribbons”, 2.5 stars: Another race in the Pelted Universe is given a closer look. The male MC is very over the top, the female one is clueless and naive. Pretty simplistic and moralistic little tale.
"The Elements of Freedom", 4 stars: Yoda talking, he is. Much Native American his compatriots sound. This was my favourite of the collection. I liked the setting and the tone.
"Pantheon", 3 stars: Very short. I would love to get a look at that card deck!
"Tears": snippet
"Butterfly", 3 stars: Slightly longer story about family, tradition and the sometimes stupid things people do in the name of those traditions.
The collection as a whole was ok. Nothing terribly exciting, but a nice enough read for a Sunday afternoon on the sofa.
