\u201cReminiscent of the weirdness of Ben Marcus\u2019s The Flame Alphabet<\/i>, \u201cIn the Sharing Place\u201d by David Erik Nelson chronicles in vivid surreal fashion a post-invasion, post-collapse world where psychological counseling takes on dire new facets.\u2026this is a killer collection, full of top-notch stories beautifully written and invested with much care, compassion and thought \u2026Deploying the toolkit and concerns bequeathed by their literary ancestors, they are extending the reach of the genre not by plowing under everything that was built before and salting the earth, but by erecting new superstructures on old foundations\u2014or perhaps new eco-communes in the shadow of dinosaur cities. It\u2019s the way the field has always moved forward, and this volume gives plenty of hope that the future of future fiction is in good hands.\u201d\u2014Paul Di Filippo<\/a>, Locus Magazine<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\n

\u201cWhile readers may be familiar with many of the names and individual works here, having them together in one volume creates a stunning set of sf shorts. Highly recommended for all collections.\u201c\u2014Library Journal<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\u201cThere are also stories that present unique dystopias such as the mist-haunted New York in Jason Sanford\u2019s \u2018Toppers\u2019 or the mysterious outside world in David Erik Nelson\u2019s \u2018In the Sharing Place.\u2019\u201d\u2014Booklist<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\u201cAfter some kind of alien invasion\/apocalypse, children try to come to terms with the loss of their families \u2018In The Sharing Place\u2019, a thoughtful and ultimately a chilling story by David Erik Nelson. Much of the narrative takes place in the therapy sessions that happen in the Sharing Place and only slowly are details of the apocalypse revealed. It\u2019s a very effective tale.\u201d SF Crowsnest<\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
