Good If Uneven Collection
As expected Gutter Ballet set in the Sun Eater universe was an absolute treat as is everything written by Christopher Ruocchio. I also really enjoyed the last story set in the Monster Hunter World by Larry Corriea. Overall I really like the idea of mixing noir detective storytelling with fantasy and sci fi. I also really liked the alternate history short story in this collection. There were just a few stories that couldn't hold my attention. It was still worth the few bucks I paid for the kindle version.
