The Space Opera Renaissance by David G. Hartwell, Kathryn Cramer

5.0

Another hefty tome from the Hartwell canon. Wide-ranging and brilliant, there's a nice assembly of stories to give you an idea that Space Opera should not be derided, nor is it as simplistic a subgenre as some would suggest. Not easy to do when such material these days is typified by 1000-plus-page multi-volume blockbusters. Though not all tales will be to everyone's tastes, recommended.
