Praise for Lake of Souls: The Collected Short Fiction
-
Powerful.
-
No science-fiction series as descriptive of our current political and cultural moment or as insistent that we open our eyes to it.
-
A gripping read, with top-notch world building and a set of rich subtexts about human rights, colonialism -- and (yes) hive mind sex.
-
There are few who write science fiction like Ann Leckie can. There are few who ever could.
-
The sort of space opera audiences have been waiting for.
