4.0
A good-sized anthology of breezy SF/F fiction featuring mad scientists, often as the protagonists instead of the antagonists. (This makes a worthy companion to "Soon I Will Be Invincible".) Like all other anthologies of this nature, it's a mixed bag in terms of quality, with a few being truly good and even transcending the inherent silliness of the conceit, and the few "bad" ones being easy to skip through. The definition of a good, light read.
