From the book jacket:
"For more than a quarter century, Gardner Dozois's The Year's Best Science Fiction has defined the field. It is the most important anthology, not only annually, but overall." -Charles N. Brown, Publisher of LOCUS magazine.
Stories are often the beginnings of sci-fi books. Authors say that the characters, once created, dictate the direction a book will follow, so they can continue to live their lives after the first story ends. But the first key to unlock the book is, for many authors, the story.
