Reviews for Reclaim the Stars

[Arrow Kilbourn · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This collection was excellent. It was so nice to find fantasy and sci-fi stories that aren’t just about cis white protagonists. Some of these were definitely written for a young audience, but I enjoyed most of them anyways. The best thing is that a couple of the featured authors who I really enjoyed have full length novels too! The narration was very good.
