Great collection of short stories all outlandish and unbridled in the pursuit of pushing the limits of imagination. It carries some of the hallmarks of Cixin Liu's Three Body Problem series but it is unfair and inappropriate to compare that sprawling space opera to the short story form. Well worth reading these. My only complaint was i was left wanting more.
