Worlds Seen in Passing: Ten Years of Tor.com Short Fiction

These Deathless Bones by Cassandra Khaw ★★★★★ 

Prince Joffrey’s witchy step-mother has officially given her last fuck.  It was hard to read, even briefly, about this waste-of-space prince, but it made watching his bones crawl all the more satisfying.

Best legal thriller ever. 

Wounds: Six Stories From the Border of Hell by Nathan Ballingrud

The Butcher’s Table by Nathan Ballingrud ★★★★★ 
Hideous beauty, confronting and objectionable grace - everything I ever wanted from Clive Barker.  

Blue Remembered Earth (Poseidon's Children #1) by Alastair Reynolds ★★★★★

Un-for-gett-able.

Skeleton Crew by Stephen King

The Jaunt ★★★★½ 
I was wondering about the sweet family trip to Mars, but then the story had a stopover in Providence and I knew where we were going :)
