![]() ![]() “ Countdown”: The only piece I read prior to reading Rise, “Countdown” is the story where it all begins-the story of Dr. A murderous home populated by zombies and mad scientists and even madder assassins and insane, scientifically-impossible bloggers and regular, everyday people pushed to their absolute limits on the brink of destruction-and all of them are what makes it home. ![]() And even with my baggage, reading Rise felt like coming home. Rise is the first book to collect all of Mira Grant’s previously published short fiction set in the Newsflesh universe-five novellas, one short story-as well as two brand-new pieces. We don’t talk about that, save that it is 100 percent personal.) (Hi, I have issues with the second half of Blackout. Having all of them here in one book is a joy-I was able to fully dive back into this universe and its characters that I love so much EVEN WHEN THEY DO THINGS THAT MAKE ME WANT TO BLOW THE UNIVERSE UP. I’ve wanted to read all the short stories set in the Newsflesh universe for ages but haven’t been able to obtain many of them for several reasons. The exception is the Newsflesh trilogy, which I love with the force of a thousand suns. I’ve read at least one book in every single series she’s published and had a “meh” response to all of them. ![]() ![]() I have the world’s strangest relationship with the writing of Mira Grant/Seanan McGuire. ![]()
