Yet another good one. Glad there's still more of his for me to read.

While the joke about people on drugs has them saying, "Ooooh, the colors," in my new interview with author Paz Pardo, she explains why, in her alt-history sci-fi allegory / police procedural novel "The Shamshine Blind," people yell, "AAAAA! THE COLORS! THE PAINFUL, WEAPONIZED COLORS!!"

Though it was the weirdest book of the 9, and I always preferred when these stories were more grounded, this was still a satisfying end to this epic saga.

Third book of his I've read, and I'm still (pleasantly) surprised by what he writes about and the perspective he takes.

If the first 80 pages are any indication, this epic saga is going to end in the same clever, effortless way it began.

Though a mixed bag (aren't all anthologies?), it decidedly had a lot more good than bad.

So far, this is as unflinching and impressive as, well, the other book of her that I read.

I really liked her original , but not the really long found poem that was like 3/4th of this book and utterly skippable.

Clearly isn't taking itself too seriously, a good thing for a story about rogues.
