Extractions: Connie Willis Click on a book's image or title to order from Amazon.com Reviewed June 2001 This is a collection of Connie Willis' earliest short fiction. I was first introduced to her writing through her much later book Bellwether . Now, several years and books later, I'm finding that that was perhaps her strongest book. Fire Watch points out many of Willis' weakest points, shared by some of her other stories: She's a weak plotter, and rarely presents a satisfying ending. The title story is notable primarily for being part of the world of her later tour-de-force Doomsday Book . Here, the narrator travels only as far back as World War II, to defend St. Paul's Cathedral in London during the Battle of Britain. To be fair, this story probably plays much better if you haven't previously read Doomsday Book , as they evoke the same themes, but the novel is a much deeper and edifying work. Regrettably, with one exception "Fire Watch" is the strongest story in the book. At the other end of the spectrum is "All My Darling Daughters", which I found to be a story completely without point. A foul-mouthed teenaged girl is in boarding school aboard a decrepit space station, getting into trouble and frustrated that the boys are more interested in their peculiar new pets than in screwing her. The piece is just downright cruel and at best might be considered illustrative of how awful teenage years feel to some people, but basically it's just distasteful. A friend of mine has remarked that Willis' stories rarely seem like science fiction, or even fantasy, and that's often true here. "Service for the Burial of the Dead" might be considered a ghost story after a fashion, but is more of a vignette about a woman whose lover betrayed her and then died, and seemingly returns as a ghost. "Mail Order Clone" is a light humor piece which relies entirely on its punch line. "And Come From Miles Around", although a pretty solid story about deduction from evidence that many people don't see, is not fantastic at all.
