I've been a fan of Zelazny's short stories for decades. His taught prose and spare, whittled-down dialog seemingly defy the laws of physics; he brings full-throated characters to life in the space of paragraphs, and never bogs his stories with unnecessary detail.

A true master of the form, much prefer his shorter works to his more-famous novels. Worth your time. ( )

I may write more on this impressive short story collection in the future, but for now I'll just say that 'The Keys to December', "A Rose for Ecclesiastes", 'This Mortal Mountain' and 'The Moment of the Storm' are truly outstanding stories - 'The Keys to December' I would now regard as a favorite SF story.
