Cheries Worth Getting (Nicole Kimberling) ~ 3.5 stars
Keith Curry is a ex-chef turned Irregular Agent, who is investigating culinary-related crime (humans are being murdered and their flesh are, well, being served as meat on restaurants *yuck*). Enters Gunther Heartman, an agent who is also goblin expert, and one time Keith's ex friends-with-benefit. They now must work together, while navigating around the 'case of the heart' as well.

Anthologies can be a mixed bag and I mostly don't go for them, especially since it can be hard to keep momentum up through the whole book.
Project concepts like the Irregulars though is a great way to do it. As other reviewers have discussed, the anthology is based in the same setting--our world, but skewed, with the existence of other realms and supernatural beings, and an international police organization that helps maintain order and minimize "incidents" between the humans and other beings.

I have loved the idea of a shared universe ever since reading Tales from the Vulgar Unicorn in HS. Different authors creating people and events inside a shared world, fun! Sometimes the stories work, and sometimes they don't, but all 4 stories in this collection are excellent.

Excellent anthology!
I think the third story was my favorite, but I wished there was more when I got to the end. The first story was a bit gruesome, but that's exactly what I was looking for.

Each story is unique, well written, and enjoyable. My favorite is Astrid Amara's No Life But This.
