A note on the anthologies: For each anthology there will be a brief general statement about the collection plus annotations for a representative sampling of stories. It is often difficult to summarize a short story without giving too much away so some of the annotations may seem a bit terse. All story titles in the anthologies are listed. You will note that some stories are found in more than one collection. |
