About the book

Starlings isn t really a short-story collection. It s something better: a written showreel, illustrating yet again that [Walton s] imagination stretches to the stars (or the starlings), and that she s endlessly inventive in finding new methods to express it. NPR Books

An ancient coin cyber-spies on lovers and thieves. The magic mirror sees all but can do nothing. A cloned savior solves a fanatically-inspired murder. Three Irish siblings thieve treasures with bad poetry and the aid of the Queen of Cats.

With these captivating initial glimpses into her storytelling psyche, Jo Walton shines through subtle myths and reinvented realities. Through eclectic stories, subtle vignettes, inspired poetry, and more, Walton soars with humans, machines, and magic rising from the every day into the universe itself.
