Some things storyline and pacing wise didn't make sense. It needed to be fleshed out a little more.
Overall it was really really good. I definitely want to read the full novels and get the full experience. I have a feeling I will absolutely love this series...more

Creativity and the Minotaur- ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Newton’s Child- ⭐⭐⭐ This was somehow both boring and interesting. The part specifically about writing was my favourite part.
The Joys of Storytelling I- ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 Split into 14 small parts. Some were really good, most started good then lost me towards the end.
The Human Race is Not Yet Free- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 My favourite part so far!
The Joys of Storytelling II- ⭐⭐⭐ Split into 4 parts. Part 2 was my favourite, but they were all just fine.
Leaping out of Shakespeare’s Terror: Five Meditations on Othello- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was great! Never liked Shakespeare, never read Othello, so I was nervous going into this part, but wow!
Beyond Words- ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 Split into 4 parts. This was fine, almost good, but not. Favourite part was the first.
Amongst the Silent Stones- ⭐⭐⭐
Fables are Made of This: For Ken Saro-Wiwa (1941-96)- ⭐⭐ This was as boring as the first essay, but I liked the last page.
The Joys of Storytelling III- ⭐⭐ 1/2 When it hit, it was great. When it missed, it really missed.
Redreaming the World- ⭐⭐ Another one to end the collection. Woo!...more
