I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review
This book was a collection of short stories, that each drastically differed between each other. In this book there were a variety of genres that any reader could enjoy there was some contemporary, fantasy, and Sci-Fi.
There were some genres in there I usually don't like reading, but I was along for the ride and each short story was beautifully written that captured my imagination and emotions despite which genre it came from. All the human characters stood out on their own, I could connect with them and understand their motives if they were in a high stakes situation.
Some stories were more fast paced than others and would have personally liked if it was just one genre. Gaia's Miracle was slightly confusing at first. I feel the confusion was more driven by the fact it read more like a Horror at first, when I know it's supposed to be Sci-Fantasy but when those elements I'm used to returned I was less confused.
Overall, I think this was a great debut from Dorward because it shows off their talents as a writer by writing in multiple genres and I recommend you check this book out.
