The short stories in this collection by J.L. Campbell were superbly intriguing. This was my first time reading this author's work, but, it certainly will not be my last. She tackled difficult themes in which people were 'done wrong' and as its title states, they 'got even' with the wrong doers. I found the endings both thought provoking, disturbing, and intriguing. Did these people, who were most assuredly 'done wrong' --did they do the right thing in how they got even? Hmmm. A lot of judgement calls there. And, that is one reason I found this book to be one of the best I've read. For me, the myriad of emotions this author managed to evoke with these short stories, make this book one to read. There is a Part II, and it is on my list of books to read in the future.
