4.0 out of 5 stars
small moments on a big planet,
This review is from: From the Place in the Valley Deep in the Forest (Paperback)
An excellent collection, with exceptionally vivid characters. Not all of the stories struck me with the same weight, but the ones that did--"Voice Of The Sun," "Wormwood," "Viv's Bidding," "Totem"--are among the best short fiction I've read in a long while. Lesser pieces like "Sifting Through" and the title story are still better than most, though they seemed somewhat brisk in their presentation. A minor qualm, and one that may have gone unnoticed if it weren't for the quality, length, and richness of the other stories. A highly recommended debut of short fiction.

Around the world in 8 stories,
By Patty K. (NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: From the Place in the Valley Deep in the Forest (Paperback)
An incredibly written, insightful, flat-out great collection of stories. Loved the shift of regions and locales, but it's the strong characters that move these stories along. The ending story about the Alaskan boy just concluded the whole thing beautifully. 2002 has just begun, but this one will probably remain high up on my list.
