I'm a big Turtledove fan, but I won't be ordering this one, because it's a reprint of some of his older work that I already have. Although this isn't (presently) clear from this site's description of the book, it includes the previously published Earthgrip, Noninterference and Kaleidoscope.

If you haven't read these before, 3 x T is worth a look.

I have always like Harry Turtledove's stories. This book introduced me to some I did not know of. It is a collection of shorter fiction, all of which are pretty good. Some are genuinely great. The combination of humor and good writing makes for a fantastic read.

Be aware: Some of the stories have been published before as books.

Featuring a section of short stories and two novels/novellas, most of the fiction in this anthology has apparently seen print before. However the shorter fiction include some enlightening introductory autobiographical paragraphs from the author, and at least one of the stories is presented in an original, as yet unpublished form.

While this may not appeal to diehard Turtledove fans who might already own most of the work, if you have read some Turtledove, enjoyed it and are looking for a way to get more exposure to his work, this book is great. That's the position I'm in and am thoroughly enjoying myself.
