Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The best stories of the year: here is a collection of the best science fiction prose written in 2006, by some of the genre's greatest authors, and selected by Rich Horton, a contributing reviewer to many of the field's most respected magazines.
Review:"'Returning for his second stint editing Prime's annual SF compilation, Horton is faced with a daunting task, at which he doesn't entirely succeed. Out of a dozen stories, the few inspired selections include Robert Reed's gritty 'A Billion Eves,' where exploring an infinite number of parallel universes is a godsend for some polygamous pilgrims but a decidedly dire prospect for others; Carolyn Ives Gilman's 'Okanoggan Falls,' in which a rural Wisconsin hamlet must fend off alien invaders, who have scheduled it for demolition; and Ann Leckie's 'Hesperia and Glory,' a witty homage of sorts to Edgar Rice Burroughs.
