Maybe the best of the annual Best F and SF of the Year collections yetBy James DykstraThis comes out well before The Year's Best Science Fiction. It is probably best positioned as a companion volume the that annual collection. This year Where is little overlap in content. I think of the present volume as presenting a heavy dose of FSF style fantasy with much of the science fiction overlooked in The Year's Best SF volume.No real losers in either anthology, so just buy both and be very happy.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

This is not in fact the case, and I engrave these words to describe how I came to understand the true source of life and, as a corollary, the means by which life will one day end. For most of history, the proposition that we drew life from air was so obvious that there was no need to assert it. Every day we consume two lungs heavy with air; every day we remove the empty ones from our chest and replace them with full ones. If a person is careless and lets his air level run too low, he feels the heaviness of his limbs and the growing need for replenishment.
