Like Get In Trouble, the audiobook version of this collection of short stories by Kelly Link is also read by a different narrator for each story. It's a very good format which gives each tale its own flavor. This collection is very strong. I am amazed at how many completely different settings and characters Link has created, nearly all of which contain a magical or surreal element. Where do these all come from? What is it like to live in her brain? I can't even imagine. The only story in the book that I didn't especially care for was, ironically, the title story. I will tell you instead about the ones that I loved. "The Wizards of Perfil" is the closest to a traditional fantasy story, set in a country torn by war. A family is fleeing through Perfil as refugees. In an effort to save her youngest children, the mother offers to sell the older two to the mysterious Wizards who live deep in a magic-infused swamp. The Wizards take one child but not the other, even though both have latent magical abilities and can telepathically communicate with each other. The girl taken by the wizards is safe, but she watches from afar as her family journeys towards disaster. The twist at the end was like a sharp in-taken breath of surprise, sorrow and wonder. "The Constable of Abal" is about a woman and her daughter who can see and talk to ghosts, and who use these abilities to swindle the wealthy- until the mother decides to give up all her sins. "The Specialist's Hat", "Monster" and "The Wrong Grave" were all as close to horror as I am comfortable with reading. "The Faery Handbag" is about a family legacy, a teenage crush, and an entire European village living inside a magical bag outside the stream of time. And there's so much more. I'd recommend Kelly Link to everyone.
