Can confirm! I did have the Califa context of you having described the Flora Segunda books to me over a decade ago, but that is not exactly detailed and in-depth context, and these stories were by and large a great experience, if one where I could feel various nuances and easter eggs whizzing right by me.

(Also, extremely agreed about the chupacabra one. The others were mostly just fun, for me if not necessarily the character; that one was... let's go with awkward.)
