a_l_deleon's review against another edition
5.0
It’s no secret that Peter Orullian has become one of my favorite authors. This collection of short stories is a good example of why. It’s also complementary to the full fledged novels, The Unremembered and Trial of Intentions.
I think for me, I liked the combination of the short explanations Peter gives of how and why each short story was written and the stories themselves. From a reader perspective, it certainly adds depth to the world he has created(and makes you slightly impatient for more novels). From a fellow author perspective, it adds to my already growing respect for the way he is able to string together words and create such a fantastic, believable, and intricate world.
