Filter House

Starts off with a princess and a dragon and takes us through space, through the trials of a daughter stolen into heaven and constantly at the whim of a petulant goddess and back to the Savannah. Beautiful writing, great stories that stay on your mind long after you've started a new one. I love Nisi Shawl's voice and pacing. Highly, highly recommend!
A Delight to Read!

Very well written! I enjoyed reading her short stories very much. Her stories have intriguing plots and characters that I could connect to. Image rich and emotionally meaningful. I am really surprised that Nisi Shawl has not received more recognition from the outside, non-science fiction world!
Three Stars

Some of the stories were far to abstract to follow closely.
Wonderful stories

The stories are rich and varied, the pacing nearly perfect, and the characters new and familiar at the same time.
So good! And so different from anything I've read before

So good! And so different from anything I've read before. Each story in this collection is like a new book but the Shawl's voice carries through it all beautifully.
