4.0 out of 5 stars Australian SF Reader, April 8, 2008
A pretty reasonable anthology of material collected here, with an average of 3.42, and all the stories are pretty short, in general. Basically there is a piece from all the top short story writers of the time, in Australia, along with a few others.

A brief introduction is given by the editor, and he also puts together a list of Australian SF anthologies up to that time, which is also very useful.

Miracle music. Flickdancing. The old bags and old bastiches still feel threatened by the rock and roll.
