Great collection with a lot of re-read value. I had the book for 2 days and re-read some stories 3 times. Engrossing stories and the quality was consistent. As someone who's read other of Jemisin's works, it was interesting to see the beginnings or alternate stories for some of the other worlds she's created. Personal favorites were "Red Dirt Witch", "L'Alchimista", "Valedictorian", "The Storyteller's Replacement", "The Evaluators", and "The Narcomancer."
