"Collateral" was one that left me confused, partly because there were so many characters in the beginning, but I thought it was pretty honest in its portrayal of PTSD. I noticed about 50% of the writers were women, and I thought that was a nice surprise as well.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02255287212255659436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141445435953040179.post-90816315169913563952015-10-18T11:50:39.637-07:002015-10-18T11:50:39.637-07:00I just finished reading "The best science fic...I just finished reading "The best science fiction & fantasy of the year" edited by Jonathan Strahan which includes two of the stories mentioned in your excellent article. "The Scrivener" is also my favourite - a fairy tale I would like to read to my son one day. "The Grand Jeté" was too dramatic for my taste. In my book, my other two favourites would be "Cimmeria: From The Journal of Imaginary Anthropology" by Theodora Gauss and "Colateral" by Peter Watts. Seeing so many female SF writers in the bunch came as a very nice surprise as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12422563533469978399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-141445435953040179.post-71683092404343918202015-10-18T11:49:48.155-07:002015-10-18T11:49:48.155-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12422563533469978399noreply@blogger.com
