The ‘anthology’ category on Best SF brings together all the reviews of books which are collections of new short stories, or collections of previously published short stories that aren’t Year’s Best, Nebula or Hugo collections.
Meeting Infinity. (ed Jonathan Strahan, Solaris Books 2015)
A handsome Big volume, the fourth in the series. Big Name Authors. Big font. Reviews to follow.
The Year’s Best Science Fiction and Fantasy 2015 (ed Rich Horton, Prime 2015)
Horton provides a representative sample of the Best SFF from across the various publication sources, print and online.
The Year’s Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Novellas 2015. (ed Paul Guran, Prime 2015)
Another chunky volume for the bookshelf of the Year’s Best anthology collector.
The End Has Come – The Apocalypse Triptych 3. (ed John Joseph Adams and Hugh Howey, 2015)
A clever idea for a trilogy from Adams/Howey, and they had me keeping an eye open for the appearance of volumes on Amazon, and pleased to have the POD volumes on my shelves.
Solaris Rising 3. (ed Ian Whates, Solaris 2014)
The anthology took me a while to get through, probably (looking at it in retrospect) that it didn’t have enough really top quality stories in it for me to be eagerly reaching for the volume with eager anticipation for the next story. Some good stories, but nothing really cojonal grabbing.
The End is Now – The Apocalypse Triptych 2. (ed John Joseph Adams and Hugh Howey, 2014)
Another set of excellent stories, continuing the exploration of the challenges that individuals, couples, communities and humanity as a whole have to face when things go from bad to worse
The End is Nigh – The Apocalypse Triptych 1. (ed John Joseph Adams and Hugh Howey, 2014)
An excellent opening volume of a trilogy with each volume looking at a different stage of the forthcoming apocalypse.
