Meet Me in the Future: Stories by Kameron Hurley
4.0
This was an absolutely wonderful read. Full of stories that blew my mind in a great and unexpected way, and I totally recommend this to fans of Tiptree or Le Guin.
The ones I liked best:
When We Fall: An emotional connection between a mechanic and a ship’s avatar? Beautiful, loved it, a really lovely little story about the possibilities of AI.
The Fisherman and The Pig: I love that Pig so much. This one speaks to the love of a pet and how much it means when they remember you.
The Plague Givers: A really cool little fantasy story that I’d love to read a novel about.
Warped Passages: Reminded me at first of a Tiptree story and then Alien, so I definitely liked this one.
Our Faces, Radiant Sisters! Our Faces Filled of Light! I was a little nervous about this one because the Sheldon story the title is taken from was incredible, but this was pretty good. Definitely still captured the feminism theme.
Light Brigade: Ugh so good. It came so beautifully full circle.
Now that I’ve gone through all these, I like this book even more now because they all are stories that remind me of Tiptree, an author I adore. This is a great collection of short stories and I definitely recommend it.
