I got completely lost in this book as hurricane Irma roared around my house in Miami. No really, it is that good. From start to finish the work is thought provoking, completely engrossing and yet fun and easy to read. The groupings of the stories into six sections (Aliens and Alien Worlds, Artificial Intelligences, Silo Stories, Fantasy, Algorithms of Love and Hate, Virtual Worlds, and Lost and Found) gives you an indication that this book covers and incredibly wide range of topics. So much of this is new ground and when Howey delves into trope themes (like alien invasions) the stories are completely fresh.
