5.0 out of 5 stars
Engaging anthology, March 5, 2002
This review is from: Oceans of Space (Paperback)
This collection of sixteen tales uses the seas as its basic setting, but not always Earth's waterways as the locale. The stories are divided into three major categories. "Legend of the High Seas and Spaceways" takes the readers through four adventures in the cosmos or on the edge of future science. "Proto-Pirates of the Galaxy and Beyond" provides the audience with six "pirates in space" stories. "Commodores and Commanders of the Cosmos" includes six tales about crews sailing the seas of the galaxies.
All sixteen tales are well written with contributions by some of science fiction's best authors. Each tale is unique and different as the metaphor that space is a vast ocean is met with vigor and imagination. Readers will want to take this sea cruise.
