4.0 out of 5 stars Only in-print version of "The Cookie Monster" by Vernor Vinge
Just a quick note that this anthology is the only in-print version of the novella "The Cookie Monster" by Vernor Vinge. If you're a Vernor Vinge completionist, you will need this collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hmmmm....is there a way to get a refund?
I wanted to read some sci-fi, some high IQ stuff, some thought-provoking short stories I could read on the DART getting to and from work. Well, after reading all of these stories, I'm convinced that writers do not submit their prize stories for anthologies. They submit their scraps. That's craps with an extra S. I'm dissapointed. Maybe my expectations were too high...

"Nebula Awards Showcase 2006" is another collection of stories that you read and don't forget immediately. Another great-deal-treasure through Amazon.

Well, after reading all of these stories, I'm convinced that writers do not submit their prize stories for anthologies. They submit their scraps. That's craps with an extra S. I'm dissapointed. Maybe my expectations were too high. Perhaps if I lower my expectations to what one might expect if judging a suburban high school writing contest...hmmm...no, I'm still dissappointed. The people who put this together owe me $10 just for reading through it. If you read this then you should demand compensation. I am not better off after reading this anthology. Maybe I didn't do enough shrooms or hippie lettuce before reading it. :-(
