hammard's review
3.0
This a competent but frustratingly unremarkable theme collection. Many other collections of short stories around a theme are extremely uneven with some great fiction and others that are very pedestrian or fail to engage properly with the central idea. This goes the opposite way, where a lot of great authors engage in their own very specific way about "drowned worlds".
And yet, it is no more than I imagined. Each work was good and yet felt like something I had read many times before.
So whilst not something I will not regret reading I don't think any individual piece will stick with me much beyond a few days.
