Pleased to have been a Kickstarter supporter for this collection!
A good selection of tech-related short stories. I expected more horror than sci-fi, but I'm still happy! There were quite a few that made me think about all the possibilities with technology, and I appreciated none of them was just a broad "technology bad lol".
My favorites were: "The Invisible Cure" by Gemma Church, "Hush, Little Sister" by Lyndsey Croal, and "Partingwords.exe" by Caitlin Marceau. Other really good ones: "The Harbringer" by Katie Young, "The App" by Kealan Patrick Burke, and "All Our Fertile Bones" by Teagan Olivia Sturmer.
