I’m pretty pleased with the overall quality of the collection. I only had to skip one story, from Connie Willis, that was a bit too YA for me. Otherwise I remember buying this for the Gaiman and Flynn ones especially, which are great, and I believe you can get elsewhere now anyway. But I’ve had this waiting on the TBR as one of the oldest added, so I wanted to get to the other stories as well.

The Bast one, from Rothfuss was alright, but reminded me why it’s not something I would like as I’ve grown up. And the Martin one, I just do not care for his writing or GoT, so that wasn’t a draw.

There are so many others and I didn’t annotate unfortunately, but thought the overall quality was fairly high, when it was something that interested me. It’s just hard to give the book 4 stars when most are fun but forgettable.
