The Mammoth Book Of series can be hit or miss, but this collection is amazing so far, amazing. And one of the best things about anthologies is you can read a few stories each day and get back to the real life things you need to do.:) The problem with this one, though, is that the stories are all so good, reading the collection is like eating a bag of chips and trying to stop at just one.

<3 So many great tales here, but "Somadeva: A Sky River Sutra" by Vandana Singh is absolutely stunning! <3

You can read one of the stories from The Mammoth Book of SF Stories by Women right here:
