Finally finished the last bit of this!
Great collection!Nice variety. Thought provoking stories.This anthology took me far beyond the world I am used to. To places where I was a stranger, but with motivations I could understand. Not a full story in the lot.
I've read the previous two volumes of this series, and there are always some excellent stories in them, as well as some that are not to my personal taste (but are still well done). The publication is done on a shoestring, and the copy editing reflects that, unfortunately. But there are some remarkable stories, and that's what keeps me coming back. There was only one story in this volume that I didn't read it its entirety: Seanan McGuire's "Ye Highlands and Ye Lowlands," which vigorously signalle...
I had an enjoyable and forgettable few hours with these. The one that made me think, though, was Cat Rambo's Red in Tooth and Cog. Maybe putting programmable processors in everything and linking them together is not such a great idea long term.

Every story is brilliant! What a collection of treasures.
TLLLA3In general, I'm not a fan of anthologies; but for the third time in a row, Mr. Steffen has put together a remarkable collection of stories.

Overall, I found this a "good read." I enjoyed some of the stories much more than others, as would most people. Some of the stories were so good, I wanted a whole book on continuing that story. It's hard to write a review of an Anthology when the only connecting thread is that they are all Science Fiction oriented. It becomes a matter of taste in what kind of science fiction you enjoy. My advice is, give it a try!DSJ
