2008-07-06 One City review

I bought this book for Irvine Welsh's contribution, but was interested to read the others. I've not read Rankin or McCall Smith before, so didn't know what to expect from them.

Overall - it's a good little book for a fairly quick read. I enjoyed all three stories - espcially Welsh's, although I am biased. All fairly unusual tales, with a good mix of style. It's a shame JK Rowling didn't contribute a story - her intro is interesting, but very short.
