Rating and review for the following stories only:
"Stone Wall Truth", Caroline M. Yoachim ****
My second Yoachim's work and I really liked it! Told from the POV of a magical surgeon/executioner, it delved into one's perception about judgment of the so-called guilty: who should do it, if at all.
"You Pretend Like You Never Met Me, and I'll Pretend Like I Never Met You", Maria Dahvana Headley ***
A strange tale about a failed magician who liked to pick up strange women at the bar, I am not certain if I liked it or not. Maybe I don't.
"Harry and Marlowe and the Secret of Ahomana", Carrie Vaughn ***
Set during the Victorian era, a Princess of Wales and her pilot beau went down with their airship and found the technologically advanced Wakan...I mean, Ahomana. Entertaining enough at the start, with predictable ending.
