I'm only a few chapters in but I'm totally loving this world. At first I was getting a Necromancer vibe but I actually like the main character way more than what Gordon R. Dickson wrote. The action is written in a great quick style that moves the pages along. I'm interested in seeing where this goes.
I'll flesh this review out once I finish the book.

"Love in the Time of Vacuum Decay" is a collection of short, provocative stories, each exploring unique themes of grim futures, child-like wonder, and, above all, obscurity. With such a creative project, one can't help but wonder about the mind behind the writing. How does someone conceive such a refreshing concept?
My favorite stories in no order:
- Geraldine's Blanket
- Horse
- Cool
- Things That Are, but Aren't
- City
- Four Cornered Pedro
- A New Drug (Loved the highway-shoulder Yakuza imagery)
- X Men

If you've ever wondered what the world of Aladdin (1992 animated film) would be like with guns and a mentally insane Aladdin you'll want to read this book.

An intriguing and mysterious short story unfolds, centered around a girl and her parents. The narrative skillfully blurs the lines between reality and imagination, leaving the reader questioning the true nature of Josie and her circumstances. Without divulging too many details, the conclusion empowers the reader to interpret the genuine motivations behind a late-night phone call and the parents responding to it.

There’s a lot about this sci-fi novel that I haven’t seen in other books of the genre. I really like the concept of knowledge transfer and how it’s almost a commodity. I think the main character is interesting but a lot of it is things are happening to him instead of taking action. I guess that’s how life can be sometimes. The ending is big cliffhanger, so I look forward to book II.

A shorter book than the first one. The author probably could have finished the whole story in book one and it would have been fine. That’s not to say this book was bad but the ending was different than I expected and I wonder if the author didn’t know how the story was going to end so he let book one release so he could make up book two.
