Jim Rion reviewed Punktown by Jeffrey Thomas
Review of 'Punktown' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
As with any collection, there are hits and there are missed, but even the low points in this one are worth experiencing.
The setting of Punktown is one of limitless, if grungy, possibility. High tech, low brow, alien and human: the intertwined elements are always interesting, and often deeply affecting.
At times, though, it seems like the science fiction workers are utterly unnecessary. Face, for example, could just add easily take place in New York, but that doesn't make it any less emotionally powerful.
A great collection.
