I preordered this as soon as it was announced.  Vance wound up in my diet of SF pretty early in my reading life.

 

This is a great lineup and I look forward to devouring it when it comes out.

 

OOC: That should be Kage Baker, not Bager, right?

No, it's Kage Bager, the fly-by-night author trying to capitalize on Kage Baker's work.

I kid!  The fault rests entirely with John C. Wright.

I kid again!  Typo fixed.

Hey John

That's only a partial table of contents. It omits at least three stories - those by Waldrop, Gaiman and George Martin - that are in the final book.

Thanks, Jonathan!  Looks like I jumped the gun.  Post updated...with vague information.  :)
