“Not quite like anything you have ever read, a sentiment that applies to so much of Crowley’s work. And Go Like This is a distinguished, eclectic collection that deserves a large, appreciative audience. I hope it finds one.”
— William Sheehan, Washington Post
“There’s also ‘Anosognosia,’ the only story not previously published. It’s a terrific fantasia on a familiar Crowley theme — ‘There is more than one history of the world,’ as he put it in the tetralogy ‘Ægypt.'”
— Michael Robbins, Chicago Tribune Notable Book
“The stories in And Go Like This are wise, compassionate, and deftly crafted. Rather than straining to hold an operatic note, they tend to hum. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself humming along.”
— Vince Czyz, Arts Fuse
“Accomplished, moving, and wise.” — Tor.com
“Haunting and gorgeously written.” — Locus
“The sort of book that’s perfect for the gathering darkness of November evenings by the fire.” — Amazing Stories
“A compassionate, ruminative eye frames the sepia-tinted worlds of the fifth collection from erudite fantasist Crowley (Ka). The stories are drawn from the last 20 years of Crowley’s long career and span the breadth of speculative and literary short fiction. . . . This collection’s recurring refrains—’pay attention,’ Shakespeare, injuries and aging, the agony of making choices—coalesce into a reading experience like a long afternoon spent with an intimate, excellent raconteur.”
— Publishers Weekly
“And Go Like This is an eclectic sampler of his characteristic preoccupations cast in realist and fantasy modes. While many of the tales express a faith in existential possibilities being actualized by pragmatic decisions, a few are darker, dramatizing how ageing, disease and other impediments narrow options and constrain potential.” — Michael Saler, Times Literary Supplement
