Sci-fi Short Story Collection
This book is a wonderful collection of possibilities! Each author writes about different options that could happen in the future or on other worlds. I loved reading all of them. Thanks so much for many hours of entertainment!
Not Bad, Not Great
Overall I enjoyed this collection and some contributions especially, but some of the selected stories are a bit too boilerplate or even trite - the literary equivalent of a made for TV sci-fi movie. The authors are all assuredly talented, but I would prefer to see the very best of the best in a collection such as this.
Bridge across the stars
Good read a couple of the stories were hard to get into but over all a good anthology
