4.0 out of 5 stars
Not Free SF Reader,
By Blue Tyson "- Research Finished" (Legion clubhouse) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Isaac Asimov's Detectives (Paperback)
Another short anthology of work taken from Asimov's science fiction magazine. Unlike some of the more fantasy-oriented topics, there is a much larger range of work to draw on with a theme like this, as there are many sf detective type stories. This bunch hence manages a 3.67. Egan's story is an excellent example such. The Varley and Kress pieces are superior to the more mundane Wilhelm and Asimov stories, too.
Isaac Asimov's Detectives : THE BARBIE MURDERS - John Varley Isaac Asimov's Detectives : COCOON - Greg Egan Isaac Asimov's Detectives : THE GORGON FIELD - Kate Wilhelm Isaac Asimov's Detectives : RITES OF SPRING - Lisa Goldstein Isaac Asimov's Detectives : THE BACKWARD LOOK - Isaac Asimov Isaac Asimov's Detectives : FAULT LINES Nancy - Kress Standard lookalikes hard to investigate. 4 out of 5 A private policeman investigates a bombing of a biological research centre looking into natal protection of babies, when he stumbles across the fact of the company moving anyone not died in the wool h3tero away from the project, and realises they are also experimenting with preventing non-h3tero births by controlling maternal stress factors. 4.5 out of 5 Power hunt. 3 out of 5 Goddess kid missing. 3.5 out of 5 Black Widower writing method eclipse. 3 out of 5 Elderly neuropharm bonding kill. 4 out of 5 |
