My life in books

James Morrow and Kathryn Morrow, The SFWA European Hall of Fame

I particularly enjoyed reading this because there is so little science fiction available from countries where English is not the primary language. I would love to see more works from Europe translated into English. There is so much wonderful work we miss out on.


Denise Little (ed.), Enchantment Place

A great concept for an anthology - invite some of the best writers of urban/contemporary fantasy write stories based in a mall whose varied establishments cater to the needs of vampires, wizards, elves and other creatures of fantasy - and to humans who go looking for the fantastic.


Mercedes Lackey (ed.), Changing the World
Mercedes Lackey (ed.), Finding the Way

Valdemar anthologies. So much fun to read, there is a certain pleasure in coming back to a well-known secondary world and seeing so many different writers creating teir own characters within it. I continue to appreciate Lackey's generosity in allowing other writers to create in her world and sharing the results with fans of the world she created.

John Joseph Adams (ed.), The Living Dead

Adams has been putting together some of the more interesting themed anthologies of science fiction and fantasy currently being published - this one collects some of the best in zombie stories.
