![]() ![]() Technology, science, and humanity collide in Daniel H. Overall, this collection was difficult to put down and regularly gut wrenching.ĬW: death, grief, murder, torture, slavery, kidnapping, animal cruelty, dated language in reference to indigenous people, reference to genocide, reference to rape, ableism (& frequent use of r-slur), mentions of child abuse ![]() Beatrix is a monster with a mind distorted beyond correction and to put emphasis that she’s a dark skinned girl was definitely…a choice. In the story Blood Memory, I couldn’t help but be a bit uncomfortable with the multiple mentions of how dark-skinned the little Black girl was when she is also the villain of the story. There’s one issue I couldn’t really ignore that I understand probably wasn’t done intentionally but is still something I noticed regardless. I think I much prefer this book to Robopocalypse. There’s a true sense of fear and hopelessness that runs through the minds of this cast of characters. From the apocalypse to fighting tyrannical men in power to vengeance, we explore numerous themes in stories suspended in time. A haunting, disturbing, and (at times) claustrophobic collection of dark adult sci-fi stories that get told through different styles from one author. ![]()
