psocoptera: ink drawing of celtic knot (Default)
Novelettes:
Children of Thorns, Children of Water, Aliette de Bodard, a story from her Dominion of the Fallen universe (two novels of which I have not read either). I think I skipped reading this when I read the rest of Uncanny because it was a tie-in to stuff I hadn't read, and now, having read it, I feel like that was a fine choice. I mean, I really like de Bodard, but I was less into this world than her Xuya stories, and this story didn't really hang together for me. I felt like I didn't quite get what was going on or the significance of things being described.

Wind Will Rove, Sarah Pinsker, link goes to a pdf. Amazing generation-ship story about traditional music and history and memory. Highly recommended especially to people who like or play folk music.

Short story:
The Martian Obelisk, Linda Nagata. I had a lot of feelings about this one too. "Space monuments" is often of interest to me, as is how we approach the breakdown of civilization, sigh.

Anyways, now I'm done with two fiction categories!
