Overall, about average. There were a few I couldn't get through, and one with an established couple I didn't read at all. I didn't discover any new authors which is usually what I look forward to in these anthologies. My favorite (maybe 4/5 stars) was the Xara X. Xanakas cowboy/geek one which was kinda adorable and pretty funny.
