Always hard to judge an anthology as a whole, but overall I really enjoyed this book. I do agree that it could have used more guidance or context besides the introduction, but most stories were understandable on their own as well. The one thing that threw me off was how many stories ended very abruptly, almost as if they were cut off and not like an intentional open ending.
