Upsie-Daisy by Jane Lebak
Did you know guardian angels have a sharp sense of humor? It’s a requirement for the job, otherwise they’d run screaming instead of dealing with us. If you’re new to the Lee and Bucky stories, welcome to the world of sarcastic mechanics and pun-slinging angels. This story takes place about four months before any of the full-length novels, that way you can dive right in.

Circular Horizon by Bokerah Brumley
As a speculative fiction writer, I’m forever intrigued with the ‘what if.’ For instance, what if there was real-world science fiction featuring a God-fearing astronaut? This brain-wandering led to a story, and I briefly explore this idea with Mae McNair and Abel Onizuka in Circular Horizon.

Review: All of these authors were new to me, but I doubt this will be the last time I read their work. It was nice to read so many different genres of Christian fiction in one place.
While all of the stories are very well-written and entertaining, I quickly found some personal favorites. That's How She Rolls by C.L. Wells was humorous yet touching. Leopard's Find by Kimberly A. Rogers was fascinating and full of surprises. Upsie-Daisy by Jane Lebak was my absolute favorite of all six novelettes--it tells about a very different sort of guardian angel than what I generally imagine.
The other three stories are also good ones, they just aren't the sort of thing that I enjoy for my own reading. I have friends, however, who do enjoy those genres and were super-excited to read them.
Overall, this is a marvelous anthology, and I'm sure everyone who reads it will come away with at least one new author to read!
Rating: Four stars
