Ted Chiang is a brilliant writer. His stories are deep and thought-provoking. For those who may not be familiar with him, he wrote "Story of Your Life" on which the movie Arrival was based.

That story is in a different collection, "Stories of My Life," but both books are excellent reads
Thanks, bought it anyway. Had a dollar of digital credit to use so figured .99 cents I'd give it a try. Heard good things about the author...

Quote from digduck :
The tower of Babylon is also one of my favorites from him! Though it's in his first anthology of short stories.

He is an excellent writer with very imaginative and captivating stories. I highly suggest anyone to grab a copy or to borrow it from your local library or even get the audio book versions which are pretty good too.
Is there an order to reading his books, or each is short story so it doesn't matter?

Doesn't matter, they aren't related in any way.

+1 to this deal, Ted's stories are incredible. Definitely one of the best sci-fi writers of our time.

I only buy the ones that are not for free on the Libby app. Libby also has the audible version also for free. I prefer audible.
