I don’t read much science fiction or speculative fiction, but I had a good time reading this collection! My favourites often dealt with the effects the oil industry on nature and communities, including Spider the Artist, The Popular Mechanic, and Moom! Which is actually the prologue to Lagoon which I now want to read! The titular story is also excellent, as was Tumaki. Most of the stories had something great to offer, and while a few were forgettable they were enjoyable to read at the time.
