The Book That Taught

Date of Review:  Sep 30, 2000
Review: I am a longtime SF reader, but somehow I had bypassed this fine short-story collection until a few years ago. It was the first book a new girlfriend recommended when we started dating. This wasn't just because it was a good book, however; she felt...

Review: This is one of 'those' books that keeps you up late at night until dots dance in front of your eyes and somewhere in the back of your mind you know you will be worthless at work in a few hours, but it doesn't matter because right now you are truly...
