I really enjoyed Jackelope Wives, but I think I prefer this companion story.
Jackalope Wives was a lovely bit of mid-western US folklore...but Tomato Thief steps things up by throwing in some Russian fairy tales, as well. (A blend of the firebird legend, and Koschei the Deathless.)
And I'm finding that I really enjoy the idea of train gods. Or, just trains being mythical creatures in general, I suppose. I did love the imagery of Where the Trains Turn.
Crossing my fingers that if there's another companion story in the set, it's about the train gods.
