Wow! This was such an unexpected little treat - and a must read for any fans of the original Arc of a Scythe trilogy. […] I think I'll definitely be revisiting the series at some point, and may well tandem read it alongside some of these short stories to add to the experience. An easy 5 stars!
I enjoyed these stories and it fascinated me to hear more about the world through a bunch of different authors.
I absolutely love this Universe, so a collection of short stories featuring some familiar and some new characters is exactly what I needed. Each one is written with the usual style and flair, and I've been inspired to reread the main series again as a result!
[...] a must read for any fans of the original Arc of a Scythe trilogy.
