It draws heavily from Asimov's science fiction mag which had a very good year. Some of my favorites from this compilation include the remarkable "The Scalehunter's Beautiful Daughter" by Lucius Shepard, "Kirinyaga" by Mike Resnick, "Glacier" by Kim Stanley Robinson and Connie Willis's "Last of the Winnebagoes". There are many more very fine stories. (  ) RBeffa | Mar 23, 2009 |  Great collection, notably "Peaches for Mad Molly", "The Last of the Winnebagoes", "Love in Vain", and "The Scalehunter's Beautiful Daughter" (Full review at my blog) (  ) KingRat | Jun 17, 2008 | A very impressive volume in this series, weighting in just a bit under the magic 4.00 number, at 3.95. This book is headlined by Steven 'Jumper' Gould's outstanding literally balls to the wall 'Peaches For Mad Molly' There are several other excellent pieces, and only one I thought was average.
