Northward to the future...
A mixed bag, as are all anthologies, of speculative and imaginative fiction from the Nordic countries. No reflection on any of the stories, just that each reader will engage differently with each story.
Some revolve around tried-and-tested tropes, while others opt for a more left-field approach. Interestingly, the Finns seem to have the edge imagination-wise, including a neat reversed perspective on the 'Kalevala'.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for this ARC.
