"This title is just a front for a collection of 12 stories, several of which are among the finest written within Longyear's time as a writer. Hardly any of the dozen end as one might expect, and yet they're not possessed of twist endings, merely good ones. Longyear is the kind of quality writer who sets up so complete a segment of life within a story, that all possibilities of a real occurrence come through." – Starlog
