“AM appeared to us as a burning bush and said we could kill the hurricane bird if we wanted to eat.” - Is this a reference to the bible?
Also, I will be throwing out all my electronics thanks to this story. But in all seriousness, I love dystopian genres, and the writing for this was short and to the point. Great read and free online if you google.
wow
the stories were a lot darker than I usually read, but the writing is amazing and gripping
Only for the story of the same name, not the whole collection: 3.5
