Too often solarpunk short stories seem to focus on the technology with the story added almost as an afterthought, but this excellent anthology definitely doesn't suffer from that issue. Almost every story features characters who learn and develop in their own right and exist in relationship with one another beyond the setting. The theme of winter is also a novel change with challenges and opportunities provided by ice, snow and flood rather than the more common heat and drought. (Based as I am in England's soggy south west, I really enjoyed the umbrellas that caught the kinetic energy of raindrops in Shel Graves' story). Highly recommended.
