![]() I am glad he wrote a longer story than all the others and didn't scrimp on character development because I think that was really important here. Though if it seems like a single story might get bogged down by all those big themes, I don't think it does. ![]() This mini-epic spans years as it looks at artificial intelligence, gender binaries, playing God, and the nature of reality and consciousness. It adds a much-needed layer of humanity to his sci-fi novels. Crouch's was longer, with way more character development and a touch of what seems to be his trademark doomed romance.Ĭrouch really is quite the romantic, I think. ![]() Jemisin's was shorter and snappier with a very hard-hitting concept. Probably my second favourite of the Forward collection because Jemisin's Emergency Skin just really did it for me, but they are so different that it's hard to compare them. ![]()
