In Mercy, Rain by Seanan McGuire

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I’m very much in favor of the way McGuire makes use of short stories within this series. They expand upon the stories from the main books without requiring those stories to be bogged down. In a sense, these are deleted scenes, except they’re meant to be canon. In taking a small chunk and expanding upon it, McGuire can slow things down and give us even more consideration or interiority of the characters.

Not too much more else to say because it’s hard to talk about a short story without spoiling it.
