On BOOKSTALKER BLOG, Lolly K Dandeneau enjoys the collection.

I enjoyed the originality of this collection. So many lyrical/magical stories try too hard, just throwing in weird happenings for the sake of being weird. Not so here. They aren’t outlandish in the telling-they sit just right in their strangeness.

Joe Sherry at NERDS OF A FEATHER, FLOCK TOGETHER is looking forward to the book.

Ten years ago Ellen Klages published her debut collection PORTABLE CHILDHOODS with Tachyon and it was wonderful and delightful and a treat to read. WICKED WONDERS marks the second collection from Klages and I can’t wait to read it!

SF BLUESTOCKING includes the volume on their Spring Reading List.

Klages’ Tor.com novella, PASSING STRANGE, was wonderful, so I’m looking forward to checking out more of her short fiction.
