Praise the SFFWA for keeping up an anthology marking their annual awards for over half a century.
Nebula Awards Showcase 2019 (ed Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Parvus Press 2019)
Shelved with the now-usual nostalgic sigh for when these volumes where choc full of great SF..

Nebula Awards Showcase 2018 (ed Jane Yolen, Pyr 2018)
Not that much in terms of a coverage of the best SF in short form. Onto the shelves with the volume.

Nebula Awards Showcase 2017 (ed Julie E. Czerneda, Pyr 2017)
All the short story nominees, just the winners in the novella and novelette categories, so not a heap of short SF by any means.

Nebula Awards Showcase 2014 (ed Kij Johnson, Pyr 2014)
The three short SFF winners, two runners-up, a Gene Wolfe story, and two stories masquerading as poetry.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2013. (ed Catherine Asaro, Pyr 2013)
With a lovely cover design by Grace M. Conti-Zilsberger, and illustration by Julie Dillon, this fat beauty has a lot of excellent fiction. And poems. And non-fiction.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2012. (ed James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel. Pyr, 2012.)
A handsome book with some excellent, average and so-so SF that is going to sit nicely against the 44 previous volumes on my groaning bookshelves.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2011. (ed Kevin J. Anderson, Tor, 2011).
A great book – full of the fiction which the SFWA honoured
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2010. (ed Bill Fawcett, Roc 2010).
Even with three of the really good stories of 2007/2008 instead of the three chosen, there wouldn’t be whole lot of bang for your buck if it’s just a read of good SF that you’re after.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2009, ed Ellen Datlow, ROC, 2009
The latest volume in the handsome Nebula Award series is in the extremely capable hands of Ellen Datlow, and a publisher who knows how to present a book to extremely good effect.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2008. ed Ben Bova, ROC, 2008
There’s a lot in here, as usual, with the Kelly story giving lots of SF bang-for-buck : if you haven’t read ‘Burn’ yet, then this is your chance so to do, and get some other high quality reading, and the professional writer’s take on what the 3 years leading up to 2008 meant to them.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase, ed Mike Resnick, ROC, 2007
A must for anyone seriously into short SF, but if only the SFFWA could tighten up the rules to choose material from a given calendar year, and pick some more Science Fiction!
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2006 – edited by Gardner Dozois, Roc, March 2006
As with recent issues, a handsome book to mark the Nebulas, although the stories themselves aren’t going to echo down the SF Hall of Fame in generations to come.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2005 – edited by Jack Dann, Roc, March 2005
Jack Dann picks up the editorial reins from Vonda N. McIntyre in the Nebula Awards Showcase series. There’s a lot of high quality fiction in this volume, and the only real beef is that the stories are from 2002, which means that in a number of cases you are reading stories which appeared in the Year’s Best anthologies two years ago.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2004 – edited by Vonda N. McIntyre, Roc, April 2004
I can recommend this year’s ‘Showcase’ as being chock full of good stuff – a marked improvement over last year’s issue which didn’t have a whole lot of fiction in it to read
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2003 – edited by Nancy Kress, Roc, April 2003
A handsome volume, but in terms of capturing the Year’s Best – not a patch on Dozois, Hartwell or Silverberg.
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2002 – edited by Kim Stanley Robinson, Roc, April 2002
A nice volume to own – make sure that the nice white cover doesn’t get dirty though!
Read moreNebula Awards Showcase 2001 – edited by Robert Silverberg, Harcourt 2001
All in all, and excellent volume – one which I would be happy to give to anyone who is sniffy about SF, confident that there is a lot of mature, high quality (science) fiction therein. Read more

Eleven uniformly excellent stories, covering most topics you might expect to see : time travel, far future, virtual reality, New Wave, and fantasy. What is perhaps of note is the lack of ‘hard SF’, and the extent to which so many of the stories are fundamentally about humanity, about people.
