5.0 out of 5 stars
Not Free SF Reader,
By Blue Tyson "- Research Finished" (Legion clubhouse) - See all my reviews Rating this is a little different I suppose, as generally it is very unlikely that you get a 4.5 or 5 for such a piece, could happen, but didn't here. To average 3.32 over 118 pieces by one author at such short length is very impressive. However, you get some scientific background in chemistry, and a lot of amusement, from sf to superhero in this collection. Reading and rating them is a long enough task, writing them is a mind boggling feat to contemplate. Bonus points for audacity and verve I think. A genre for everyone here even if you don't want to read them all. Well worth having a look at online. Symbol given in the list, actual name of the element with the rating to include both.
