So I really liked this book. The three short stories were really good, and they kept on improving from one to the next. The only reason this isn't getting 5 stars is because some were better than others. I found Genevieve Gornichec's to be the weakest of the 3 (which I found surprising, considering one of my favourite books is The Witches Heart). Cassandra Khaw's was an improvement, but the best was Caitlin Starling's. That doesn't mean any of them are not written well! They are all really well written. I just found Gornichec's to be a bit cliché, Khaw's to be a tiny bit confusing with an unlovable protagonist (which again, isn't a bad thing). It's hard to write for a world you didn't make up (as this is based on the world of the TTRPG), so major credit to all three stories. This also introduced me to Starling's work! I will defiantly be picking up some of her other works after reading this one!
