Excellent anthologyBy New River Valley OutdorsmanA lot of really good stories here. I read a lot of Golden Age stuff and this volume included many not often anthologized. A few hoary old chestnuts like Asimov's "Youth," but for the most part very well written tales by skilled writers, mostly from the mid '50's, the peak of the Golden Age. Only way to improve it would be to include some Heinlein....0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. DisappointingBy Paul HartigRather disappointing reading. I made it through most of the stories, except for the last one,which went on and on in rather pointless battle scene after battle scene. I found some of the terminology off-putting: "Geeks," for example. I continued reading, hoping that this terminology would eventually be shown to be in poor taste, but as far as I could find, this never happened, so I skimmed through the remaining chapters and eventually gave up. Since this was the longest story , at the book's conclusion, I assumed it would be the best in the book. It wasn't.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. reminder of a golden ageBy SteveSome of the stories are classics (Dick's "Second Variety"), some are duds (Asimov's "Youth"). In general the stories are ok - a pleasant reminder of a golden age of science fiction. The kindle book's layout leaves a lot to be desired.

About the AuthorTo list Isaac Asimov's honors, as to list his books, would be excessive. Let it simply be noted that Isaac Asimov was the most famous, most honored, most widely read, and most beloved science fiction author of all time. In his five decades as an author, he wrote more than four hundred books, won every award his readers and colleagues could contrive to give him, and provided pleasure and insight to millions. He died in 1992, still at work.The bestselling author of such classic novels as "Brain Wave" and "The Boat of a Million Years", Poul Anderson won just about every award the science fiction and fantasy field has to offer. He has won multiple Hugos and Nebulas, the John W. Campbell Award, The Locus Poll Award, the Skylark Award, and the SFWA Grandmaster Award for Lifetime Achievement. His books include "Harvest of Stars, The Stars are also On Fire, Operation Chaos, Operation Luna, Genesis, Mother of Kings, " and" Going for Infinity", a collection and retrospective of his life's work.
