Science Fiction The Best of 2002, edited by Robert Silverberg and Karen Haber. ibooks, 2003
With the SF community having being served for two decades by the Dozois annual collection, producing an anthology with only a dozen stories is going to be challenging. The Silverberg/Haber collection makes it even more difficult as the majority of the stories are from the first half of 2002.

Science Fiction The Very Best of 2005 – edited by Jonathan Strahan, Locus Press, September 2006
A very strong volume, IMHO, with only the Palwick story being the one to which I would object to (although with the proviso that the Sterling and Cadigan stories were for my more towards the fantasy end of the spectrum than the SF, especially for an editor who does have a complementary fantasy collection).
Science Fiction The Best of the Year 2007 edition, ed Rich Horton, Prime Books 2007
A collection more in tune with my preferences than last year’s, with the exclusion of Analog stories being the primary cause of that.
