It's a hallmark of good fiction when the stories crop up again and again like curious fish breaking the surface, consistently over a period of years. 'Sandkings' is still an utter classic; 'The Monkey Treatment' still fills me with a sense of surreal deja vu; 'The Pear Shaped Man' still makes my skin crawl. An impressive collection, although it seems only the horrror elements held together in my memory.

Collects some of the writer's early work, including "The Skin Trade," "The Hedge Knight," and "From the Journal of Xavier Desmond."

A mix of fiction from science fiction to fantasy to horror. It's a good read if you're just looking to pick it up for a few minutes at a time. I didn't love all the stories, but it was interesting to see GRRM's stories with the biographical context.
