4.0 out of 5 stars Not Free SF Reader, May 17, 2008
This review is from: Dangerous Visions 1 (Paperback)
Ellison's Dangerous Visions anthology has been broken up different ways - two volumes in the UK, and in three volumes, in this sphere edition.

Only 8 stories in the first part, as the longish Farmer novella takes up a fair chunk of it.

The introduction and story of the book is included, as are a couple of pieces of introductory work by Asimov, who apparently declined to write a story for this volume being 'way too square'.

On the whole, quite good, at 3.56, the cleverest part being the double sequel of sorts to Robert Bloch's fine 'Yours Truly, Jack the Ripper'. He takes the first part, 'A Toy For Juliette' and Ellison follows on from what happens there.
