this short story collection was absolutely bonkers and I loved it, but definitely caution that this wouldn't be up to everyone's tastes. Kusano has a particular penchant for mashing up weird ideas with hard sci-fi concepts and somehow it works. I was getting pretty exhausted by the 3rd and last story in this collection, which kinda feels redundant/treading too-similar ground as the others, amd the mobile game story was my favorite.
