From the Challenging Destiny review by James Schellenberg.Schellenberg says of the stories in this collection, using Claude as an example: "I liked these stories a great deal. In particular, Wolf does a good job with endings. Since we get a lot of detail about the internal life of the characters, the structure that leads to the ending is most often an epiphany, a moment where all those internal musings or developments come together in a rush, like a plateau before the next ascent begins. Not an “I feel ripped off” artsy ending, but an artsy ending that the story is nicely tailored for." https://www.challengingdestiny.com/reviews/findingcreatures.htm(A short story selection from the collection Finding Creatures & Other Stories by C. June Wolf, published by Wattle and Daub Books, 2008.)
