Gardner’s new book

Posted by on March 13, 2006

My esteemed collaborator Gardner Dozois is set to edit a new anthology, The Best of the Best: 20 Years of the Best Science Fiction Short Novels, for St Martins Press. Despite the somewhat unwieldy title (I don’t envy the book designer getting that on the spine ), it should be a cool book, presenting a selection of the 100 plus novellas he’s reprinted in his The Year’s Best Science Fiction anthology series. It’s a follow-on from Best of the Best : 20 Years of the Year’s Best Science Fiction which was published last year. There’s some discussion about the new book over at the Asimov’s forums. From a purely selfish perspective, I’d love to see more in the story notes on why Gardner picks the stories for the new book, why he thinks they’re important and have stood the test of time. It would be very interesting.
