A very satisfying anthology. There was a bit in the middle where the stories got a bit bogged down and all seemed to be about death and ghosts, but for the most part this was a lovely book for summer reading.
Eine hochklassige Anthologie, naturgemäß mit einigen weniger interessanten Stories, aber auch mit einigen Spitzenstories, wobei ich die von Ian McDonald schon aus seiner Cybarabad Days Collection kannte. Es dürfte einige Autoren geben, deren Namen ich im Hinterkop behalten werde: u. a. Peter S. Beagle, Ellen Klages, Kelly Link und Connie Willies. Mir persönlich fällt auf, dass es vor allem die "Fantasy" Geschichten sind, die mich überzeugt haben, einmal abgesehen von Ian McDonald.
I'm much more a fan of sci-fi over fantasy so this fantasy heavy collection didn't really grab me. There were some good stories but I really had to pick through the collection to find pieces that were of interest.
Excellent collection of stories by a variety of well known authors and some less known ones.
Great bit of stores, but for some reason could not finish the last one.
The Djin's wife.
Still a good read.

This collection was heavily weighted toward fantasy rather than SF so it offered a different mix of stories than Gardner Dozois' annual anthology. The stories were OK but I'd have preferred the balance weighted the other way, so I can't give this book high marks.
