5.0

This is not really a review, because this anthology contains one of my poems. (I received my contributor's copy two years ago and it's taken me that long to getting around to actually reading it.)

The anthology, published by the Science Fiction Poetry Association (SFPA), comprises works nominated for the Rhysling Awards, which recognizes the best speculative poems published in the previous year. Below are the winners; I've included links to poems or poets, where I could find them.

Winners in the Short Poem Category:
First Place: “The Cat Star” by Terry A. Garey
Second Place: “Futurity’s Shoelaces” by Marge Simon
Third Place: “Sister Philomela Heard the Voices of Angels” by Megan Arkenberg

Winners in the Long Poem Category:
First Place: “Into Flight” by Andrew Robert Sutton
Second Place: “String Theory” by John Philip Johnson
Third Place (tie): “The Time Traveler’s Weekend” by Adele Gardner and
“The Necromantic Wine” by Wade German
