3.0 out of 5 stars
Fair Shot,
By ED Detetcheverrie "Q" (East Coast, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moon Shots (Paperback)
I just finished Moon Shots. It's an intriguing selection of fiction ranging from the more hard-core scientific to light fantasy, each story, of course, dealing in some fashion with the Moon. I read collections like these as introductions to writers I may not have otherwise heard about, and while some of the stories appealed to me more than others, overall I found this book pleasant reading late at night just before falling asleep... It's a great little book for someone whose tastes in fiction are varied and who may not have time to sit down through an entire novel. Good for a traveler or student with some interest or fascination with Luna.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Best for only those who enjoy short story anthologies,
By A Customer
This review is from: Moon Shots (Paperback)
After a few chapters, it became a chore to finish this book. I prefer hard sci fi novels, and I only found about a third of these short stories to be interesting. Many of the stories had too much fantasy for my tastes. Of the few stories that I did enjoy such as those by Baxter and McAuley, they really were too short on details and elaboration, but I did get a taste of the authors' styles and I think it is worthwhile to see what other novels they may have written.
