I read this collection of Hugo Award 2015 nominees from the Bad Puppy slate (it has the same front cover as this book). I wasn't particularly impressed by the animal story, which had too much religious discussion and not enough action, but I loved the time travel story - The Plural of Helen of Troy - which is excerpted from City Beyond Time. Time travel is rarely done as well, or as bafflingly.
