Here's the full list, I think most of them have been talked about in this post by now!

'Coming of Age in Karhide': A first experience of kemmer
'The Matter of Seggri': Unbelievably depressing story (in anthropological report style) set on a world where there are very few men, and the sexes are segregated
'Unchosen Love': About the people of O and their four-person marriages
'Mountain Ways': Unconventional romance on O, delightful
'Solitude': Planet of the Introverts
'Old Music and the Slave Woman' set on Werel, one of the worlds in Four Ways to Forgiveness, a heart-wrenching piece of self-fanfiction
'The Birthday of the World': Odd story which reminded me quite a bit of The Tombs of Atuan, set in a civilization based on Incan society
'Paradises Lost': See Post Above!


I can't remember if you've read Changing Planes?

Taoist herons! Yes, I like Changing Planes a lot. Any one of the chapters would be the basis of an entire career's worth of books for any other writer.

Be interested in your impressions of the Octavia Butler books. I really loved the two Parable books, but haven't read any of the others.
