Holy truth, this is especially noticeable years later, when we find that King has become a master of rewriting himself, and Dan Simmons tries to surprise with every book. It doesn't always succeed, but it usually does. Regardless of whether he offers a space opera (the “Hyperion” series), a story about Indian ghosts (“Black Mountains”), a parody of a Sherlock Holmes story (“The Fifth of Hearts”) or a horror story from an icy hell (“Terror”), he always tries to surprise and that He always does in his own way. Prayers to Broken Stones is a sprawling volume that contains three collections of Simmons' short stories, originally published between 1990 and 2003. It's a testing ground for a writer, sometimes something works, sometimes it doesn't, but here are the texts that stay in our memory for a long time. .
