Think of this volume as a rather thick magazine. It has articles, awards, and short stories. The last is the best part, though I did enjoy reading about Science Fiction Films of 1996. Jack Dann acted as editor, and I wonder if he influenced the choice of Time Travel stories (my favorite genre) for this volume.
Unfortunately Jack Dann's story "DaVinci Rising" is the one I liked least. Most impactful was the very short "A Birthday" by Esther Friesner. Will keep an eye out for more by her.
This slightly dog-eared book has been riding around in my car since February, and I am glad to replace it with another short story collection for the summer.
