Review: Totem Poles
This is a short story by Rudy Rucker and Bruce Sterling, but Google Play sold it to me for a buck, so it gets a review.
Totem Poles is an exercise in magical realism dressed in SF tropes. The protagonists are all globe trotters fighting unorthodox invaders from another world, but at the end of the story, it’s all magic and literature. Which I suppose it always is, but this didn’t knock me over.
Probably worth the buck, but probably wouldn’t be my favorite in most short story collections.
