I loved the descriptions in this novella. It made me feel like I was on the boat with Iraxi having to smell and see how horrific her situation is and I could feel the anger she felt the whole time. So much was packed into this novella but I didn't feel lost to learn about this world and Iraxi's life that lead to her to be on this boat. This is about being taken advantage of and the revenge that follows.

The dialogue is getting a little too corny for me. 

Very poetic and lot of beautiful quotes about death and life but that's all the book was to me. The horror lasted 2 pages and I skimmed most of the novella unfortunately. 

Solid anthology! My top 3 I loved are: 
The third transformation 

Soroche

The house of compassion

Really recommend picking this one up! 

First 100 pages were great but then the story itself didn't know what it wanted to be and felt all over the place. I caught myself skimming the middle to ending once I lost interest. The humor in this from Toni and Peter kept me going till the end.
