Shiva In Shadow * Nancy Kress
I
enjoyed the story because it was a page turning adventure & I
missed the characters when the story was over. I'd consider this a
just-for-fun story because it really didn't challenge my thinking.
However, the writing was well done because the sci-fi portion of
sending a mental memory of you off to another part of the galaxy in a
probe wasn't a big leap - worked fine in the context of the story.
The People Of Sand And Slag by Paolo Bacigalupi, on the other hand, was a total waste of time. The plot was too slim to hold my interest; but a person who loves having animals hanging around a house might enjoy the story. Guess if I were in a proper mood I might do a bit of thinking about some of the moral questions brought up.
