Book Review of Songs of Love and Death: All Original Tales of Star-Crossed Love

barbsis avatar reviewed on + 1076 more book reviews


Most of the tales were incredibly bizarre and not very enjoyable -- MNL Hanover, Cecelia Holland, Neil Gaiman, Peter Beagle, Marjorie Liu and Tanith Lee. The stories by Lisa Tuttle, Mary Jo Putney, Yasmine Galenorn, Jo Beverly, Melinda Snodgrass, Carrie Vaughn and Robin Hobb were ok but nothing special.

I was surprised by the Jim Butcher story - Love Hurts. I hated the first Harry Dresden book but this was very good. I will now have to go back to Harry's series and read book number 2 hoping it's better than the first.

I particularly enjoyed Linnea Sinclair and Diana Gabaldon's tales. For those [book:Outlander|10964] lovers, this is about Roger MacKenzie's parents.
