I loved this anthology. Each of the short stories were so different from each other, but they were all so good. Armfield has a way with description that I rarely see. 'The Great Awake' was one of my favorites. If I could have a novel length version of it, I would be so happy. every single story in this book were so strong, so well done, that I'll probably end up reading it again before the year is through.
