Fans of William Browning Spencer have been waiting more than ten years for this, his second collection of short stories. The Ocean and All Its Devices wont disappoint. Spencers first collection, The Return of Count Electric was acclaimed by reviewers in The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, Cemetery Dance, Publishers Weekly and other magazines and newspapers. Science fiction legend Roger Zelazny, once introduced to Spencers work, became a lifelong devotee. He wrote: William Browning Spencer is one of those rare short story writers who comes along once in a generation like Saki, Collier, Sheckley and manages to combine all of the virtues within that restricted format. The Ocean and All Its Devices collects some of Spencers finest published work. Three of these stories appeared in years best anthologies. Another, The Death of the Novel, was a finalist for a Bram Stoker Award, while The Essayist in the Wilderness was on the final ballot for a World Fantasy Award.Contains: Introduction (The Ocean and All Its Devices) essayThe Ocean and All Its Devices (1994) noveletteThe Oddskeepers Daughter (1995) noveletteThe Death of the Novel (1995) short storyDownloading Midnight (1995) noveletteYour Faithful Servant (1993) short storyThe Foster Child (2000) short storyThe Halfway House at the Heart of Darkness (1998) short storyThe Lights of Armageddon (1994) short storyThe Essayist in the Wilderness (2002) novelette

I was really looking forward to 'The Ocean and All Its Devices', but it just didn’t hit the mark for me. The writing felt disjointed in places, and I struggled to stay engaged. Maybe it's just not my style.

Good, but a bit slow at times
This book has some fascinating insights about the ocean, but I found certain parts dragged on longer than they needed to. Still, there's plenty of thought-provoking material, and I'll likely revisit some chapters.

An engaging read for all ages
I picked up 'The Ocean and All Its Devices' hoping for a good story, and it didn’t disappoint! The narratives intertwine beautifully, and the characters feel so real. The cover is quite captivating too, making it a perfect gift for my niece who loves marine adventures.
