When I picked up The Royal Ghosts I thought it was a novel and not a collection of short stories. It was probably mentioned in the book description but I guess I didn't pay enough attention. I've never liked short stories and even though I did enjoy Samrat Upadhyay's writing style, this book just wasn't for me.
