This volume celebrates the achievements of 20th-century science fiction by collecting 11 original short stories from the genre's most well-known series. Including a "Ship who Sang" story by Anne McCaffrey; a story from Greg Bear set in the universe of EON and an "Uplift" story by David Brin.

Industry Reviews

A delicious concept: one of the great masters of the genre editing a selection of stories set in the legendary worlds of other master practitioners. And when the latter include David Brin adding to his remarkable Uplift sequence, Joe Haldeman revisiting the world of his Forever War, along with such writers as Ursula Le Guin, Frederik Pohl (with a new Heechee story) and Greg Bear, we are in for a treat. Some would say that these are mostly crumbs from the table of an earlier banquet (and some of the stories - such as Nancy Kress' The Sleepless - are a touch workaday), but Silverberg's galvanising presence has brought out a heady strain of imagination in his contributors, and the net effect (apart from offering a very rewarding reading experience in its own right) is to send the reader back to the original sequences - which is no bad thing.
