This is a collection of virtually everything Kornbluth ever wrote, so there are, as you might expect, some big hits and big misses. That said, the hits are really incredible, and make it clear that if Kornbluth had lived even a little longer, he'd stand out as one of the all time greats. Some favorites from this collection include "Shark Ship," which feels like it's begging for an HBO series, and "With These Hands," a (deeply grim) story about the ethics and economics of AI art written in 1955.
