These stories weren't as good as the one in the first book but there were two gems in it:
The second story - Dirae by Peter S. Beagle - blew my mind. Such an awesome, awesome, awesome story. Yes, the idea isn't something that wasn't done before but still. It's my favourite story from both books.
The second one was the novella "Out of the Dark" by David Weber. Buttons pushed! I love the main characters and I love the plot of the novella. Earth being invaded by aliens and the humans fighting back. We get the POV of various human and alien fighters and the twist in the end. HOLY COW! So did not see this coming! Yeah, the aliens are basically intelligent dogs but it's okay. The rest of the story makes it up.
