Budayeen Nights

Just finished Budayeen Nights, a collection of short stories by the late George Alec Effinger set in the same world as When Gravity Fails and its sequels.

A couple of the stories really grabbed me, one or two left me totally flat, and overall I enjoyed the read. And, to be honest, it's so damn hot right now I can't think about doing anything but laying on the sofa with a good book and a cold drink.

The intros to each story, written by Barbara Hambly were a nice added touch, and helped put some of the material in context.

If you're a fan of the novels, the collection is definitely worth a read.
