The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
This collection was really good. Some of the stories were pretty dark and disturbing (Morality is one that comes to mind), but I found that most of the stories really pulled me in in a way that short stories don't usually do.
I haven't read all of this yet, but so far I've enjoyed it. I ordered it with some trepidation as I had an idea that it was a repackaging of stories published elsewhere. So far, the majority of stuff is new to me though. And the one that isn't was a good reread.
A new update (with a new photo!) about our aftermarket slipcase for THE BAZAAR OF BAD DREAMS will be going out today to those who preordered it from us!
