Interesting addition to the Unwind dystology. I didn't think anything could disturb me as much as Shusterman's original dystology. I was wrong. There are stories in this book that are the stuff of nightmares.

This was a fantastic short story collection. I loved seeing some of the side stories in the shocking, amazingly written UnWind World. Each story was so poignant and great. I especially loved reading the story behind Lev's first visit to the ChanceFolk reservation and Wil's taking. These were all fantastic, I hope Neal Shusterman will bring even more to this series, it's one I am certainly not ready be done with, and I don't think I ever will be.

I really really enjoyed revisiting this horrifying world. It made me want to reread the series. And you know, maybe I will. The Unwind Dystology is probably in my top 5 series conclusions. With this collection, I, of course, like some stories more than others, but the only thing I can complain about is that the stories weren't arranged in chronological order. Also, that ending was almost a cliffhanger and I need resolution!

Overall, this was great and I'm sad that it's over.

Wonderful addition to the unwind series! It introduced some new characters and gave you backgrounds to so many old ones, even very minor ones. It answered a lot of remaining questions from the last book. The stories about the parts pirates were by far the best.
