**I was provided with an ARC through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review**
CW: violence, blood, gore, murder, death, animal death, animal cruelty, suicide/suicidal ideation
--
A fun bundle of short stories returning to the Arc of a Scythe universe – giving an insight of happenings across the whole timeline of the series as well as before and after!
The collection touches on characters both old and new, with many links to the storyline of the original trilogy but also elements from the world that were not touched on as much. You can expect lots of scythe action, thunderhead introspection, origin stories as well as narratives from regular members of society.
I kind of feel like this anthology is the series getting the Black Mirror treatment – yes this series is an eerie dystopian in itself but each story adds another layer of wtf-ness to it and leaves us with much to think about.
If you enjoyed Scythe, Thunderhead and The Toll in any way definitely give Gleanings a read. And if you are yet to pick up the series then what are you waiting for!!
Final Rating – 4/5 Stars
