2.0 out of 5 stars Meh, you can pass on this one., February 16, 2009
By D. Nguyen (Baghdad, Iraq) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I like reading these collection of themed-short stories but only a few were any good. It's a good theme but the stories just didn't pan out. Skip this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Free SF Reader, March 15, 2008
Not that impressive an example of one of these anthologies, averaging only 3.19.

A fairly good mixing of science fiction and fantasy, though, and certainly a good number of the stories fall exactly in the purview of the title theme.

Anything with a 'WorldFleet' in it, though, probably does not. :)

Just an average anthology, with some fun stuff from Friesner's joke cult, to Pollotta's completely over the top demon war.

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE outstanding reason to try a new collection;, April 30, 2007
Tanya Huff has a Terizon short in this book!!!
I love Terizon, Tanya Huff's Arabian-esque thief. This short does not disappoint! Terizon is once again blackmailed by her morals, and the Thieves' Council Three, into a job that no thief should be forced to undertake. Chasing an anti-government conspiracy into the city graveyard, will ghosts spook our brave thief?
Terizon, as all Tanya Huff characters/stories, is smart, funny and completely readable.
Go out of your way to find these hidden Tanya Huff jewels~ They are worth it!
