Review # 1 was written on 2019-12-19 00:00:00 Faustino Lopez The Lion of Comarre and Jupiter V were pretty fun stories. I didn't feel that "A Fall of Moondust" was worthy of being a Hugo award nominee. The main reason I gave this two stars is because the editor for this sucked badly at his job. There are typos everywhere!!

Review # 2 was written on 2014-08-01 00:00:00 Jim Bellman I first read an excerpt in the Reading the Bones anthology edited by Sheree Renee Thomas and was very intrigued, so I wanted to read the full work. I don't know what to make of this book. Hairston doesn't outright explain how the world works. The reader gets the lay of the land and the history of this world as the book progresses. I had difficulty keeping track of characters and locations. There's commentary on Hollywood/entertainment, singing as time travel, and clashes between tradition and modernity. Mindscape ultimately felt like a bundle of cool ideas that wasn't quite cohesive, fragmented like a post-Barrier world.
