Publisher's summary

Visiting the galaxy's only Cageless Zoo should be a special treat for Melandre and her children. Except she's still trying to reckon with her husband's recent death and how she's going to raise two highly independent children on her own. As their visit quickly falls to chaos, Melandre learns that family is the only thing left she has to rely on.

The Cageless Zoo

I thought this was a really enjoyable read if not a little short. I would have liked to have had the experience expanded, but for a short story, I think it was pretty well put together.

But...

Jurassic Park minus dinosaurs plus weird mythical creatures doesn’t equal a new idea. And if you need a new idea for handwavium, how about a little boy with a “hacking wand.”

Decent performance of a very weak story.
