The Best Science Fiction of the Year, Volume 12

This is a stellar collection of short stories and novellas. Of the 13 stories in this collection, I enjoyed all of them except one, and that was more a matter of taste than the story being poorly written. Most of the authors I had never heard of and the rest I was only vaguely familiar with (although if you're a regular sci-if reader, most of these names will be common-place). The collection contains an early William Gibson story that precedes his Necromancer novel. The Gibson story, "Burning Chrome", is great and I would read his longer fiction based on my reaction to this story./THE POPE OF THE CHIMPS....Robert Silver berg..../Life of imitates art as a dying scientist's experiment in mortality gives his subject chimpanzees a diabolical new concept of God/BEST VALUE ON THIS VINTAGE BOOK LIGHT TANNING /LIGHT SHELF WARE/NO CREASE IN THE SPINE/EXCELLENT VALUE/FAST SHIPPING /OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE/
