Response to Kirkus
Odd that Kirkus picked "The Common Goal of Nature" as the best story in the collection. Most others have named "Melodies of the Heart," which was a Hugo finalist. Maybe becaue "Common Goal..." was the only story whose antihero was a businessman and ex-military. I'm also at a loss as to why Kirkus thought the afterwords were to "show how smart" I was. Some of them show how dumb I was.... --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Format:Hardcover
_Forest of Time_ (the book) is a collection of classic Michael Flynn stories. Most selections are powerful stories that still satisfy even after rereading. (It was my second time for "Melodies of the Heart" and I cried as hard this time around as the first.) This is an excellent book from a master of the craft.

Buy it for 'Melodies of the Heart'
23 Sep 1999
Format:Hardcover
I'm currently ordering my 3rd copy of this book: my mother stole my 1st copy and my older brother got the 2nd. This one will never leave my library! Most of the stories in this collection are intriguing but not particularly of consequence. The exception is 'Melodies of the Heart'. Read it. Read it again. Read it some more. It doesn't matter how many times you read this story, you'll keep crying harder every time.
"You are my sunshine... my only sunshine..."
