I really do think it’d be worth getting! The stories I haven’t read are a bonus (especially when I find I agree with the anthologiser (is that the word?), as I so often do with your selections, sir!) and there’s added advantages, I think, to having stories collected in book form.
It’s interesting that none of these were published online, but when stories are, I do like having them in dead tree format too.

SFBC books are a bit hard to get in Australia but eventually escape the confines of the US…

In Best Short Novels? I can’t give away anymore information right now. Both the author and publisher granted special permission to allow the story to appear in my book, and I agreed not to break silence until the book was solicited by the publisher, so soon.

On having read the stories: I’m not too surprised that a dedicated reader such as yourself would have seen most of the stories. Hopefully it’ll still be worth getting. And, if there’s anything you can think of that would add value to the experience, let me know.

So where can we read the mysterious ninth story? ;)

A very nice list! I’ve actually read most of them, but it still looks worth getting them all together.
