A review by bookaneer
The Best of Uncanny by Michael Damian Thomas, Lynne M. Thomas

4.0

I read 2/3 of the stories (skipped the poems, sorry, not my thing) and could already conclude that Uncanny has the knack of selecting bizarre and challenging stories from very diverse voices. Sometimes the endings were ambiguous too.

In the last three years, I was introduced to many favorite new authors, so, thank you!

Personal favorites from the 20+ stories I read:
Our Talons Can Crush Galaxies by Brooke Bolander
Folding Beijing by Hao Jingfang, translated by Ken Liu
Fandom for Robots by Vina Jie-Min Prasad
Wooden Feathers by Ursula Vernon
The Heat of Us: Notes Toward an Oral History by Sam J. Miller
The Witch of Orion Waste and the Boy Knight by E. Lily Yu
You'll Surely Drown Here If You Stay by Alyssa Wong
