Some of them were a bit weird plot wise, like "The Gift, "Mandy Larkin", "Survivor" and "Force Majeur". They were all well crafted and a fun read too, just definitely out there a bit. More like her Coral Dawn series than her Kate Delafield one.
Speaking of "Daughters of the Coral Dawn", it was interesting that "Mother was an Alien" is the first chapter of "Daughters of the Coral Dawn." I've read the book, so, I skipped that story.
I loved "Benny's Place", and although I didn't get the title at first, I liked "Xessex" very much.
My second favorite story was, "O Captain, my Captain", a story of two women on a space mission to get something from an asteroid field I think (I wasn't concentrating on the technical aspects of the story). The twist was awesome and I didn't see it coming.
And then, "The Test". It was hilarious and depressing and gratifying and just an awesome short story. It was my favorite form the entire collection and I'd love to see more background etc on that world. Very cool. Overall definitely a five star collection. (
