In a starred review of the original Collected Stories, Publishers Weekly said, “Shiner never fails to astound, and this collection highlights everything that makes him one of today’s best storytellers.”
This sequel contains six of Shiner’s finest pieces, all written since Collected Stories. Here you will find everything from the making of a terrorist to the consolation of stuffed animals and a computer’s revenge—plus story notes and an Introduction from the author.

Ken Liu on Canto “MCML”:
“This is among the best flash pieces I’ve read. What I admire the most
is the craft: the details are chosen to convey just as much as you need
to know, and no more. There’s much I can learn from Shiner. Highly
recommended.”
