I only read a limited selection of this collection of science fiction and fantasy stories. That is not my favourite genre, and that soon became apparent. Some stories were really substandard, barely level Young Adult, with cardboard figures, and unlikely or just very predictable twists. Only two stories could charm: the murder story The Regular (with a complex bionic private detective in the lead role) and the title story The Paper Menagerie that was moving by its simplicity and the bond with a tragic life story. I also noticed that all (or almost all) stories had protagonists of Chinese descent. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
