(given the presence of some of the authors in the line-up, i'd not be surprised were some of these stories fantasy rather than sf: but i'd not read my copy when i stupidly let a customer's pleas persuade me to let them buy this and its predecessor, on the grounds that i could always get more copies: unfortunately, it turned out that i couldn't.)
