4.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS NOT A REVIEW BUT A WARNING, 7 Aug 2007
By J. MASSINGHAM "julian" (newcastle upon tyne) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I like this type of collection of short stories. Some while ago I bought the 2006 version. I recently received the 2007 edition. On the cover it says Joe haldemann, Alastair Reynolds and Michael Swanwick. You would assume this means there are stories by these authors within this collection - WRONG. None of the three authors listed have stories in this collection. So far it's still a good book (haven't finished it yet), but as an Alastair Reynolds fan in particular I am disappointed that there is no story by him as I was looking forward to this.
I have just realised what is going on. It's lazy printers not doing their jobs properly as the 2006 edition has the same three authors names on the front and contains stories by all three.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly edited, 20 Dec 2008
By M. Cooper - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Of the twelve short stories, only one qualified as sci-fi as far as I am concerned.

Having throuhly enjoyed short story compilations in the past I was very disappointed. Sci-fi short stoies are normal wonderfully experimental indulgancies into new idea's.

Stories do not need to be set in space, or the future, to be classified as sci-fi - but they must have some form of *science* element! These stories lacked this vital ingrediant and so where a total let down for a sci-fi book entitled "The Best of the year"
