New Arrival

The Judith Merril-edited SF’57: The Year’s Greatest Science Fiction and Fantasy arrived today.  Looks good as described on eBay.  Mighty fine buy for the price, I think.  We’ll have a look at it soon as it came with no jacket protector and I need to photograph it smartly and get it bundled up safely.  I’m looking forward to reading it actually (if I can ever get past Judgment Night…) as it contains another short story from Zenna Henderson and also Ms Merril’s illuminating prefaces to each story.  Check out the Review of SF:’58 to see what I mean.

    I’ve always wanted to track down and read these Judith Merril collections. I read some of the later ones in the 1960s when I was growing up. But your review of the 1958 volume was damning with faint praise. I hope you find more gems in the other volumes. I’m looking forward to your reviews.

      Cheers James. The only one I’m lacking now (from the Gnome Press perspective) is the 1959 installment. Cheers for the encouragement, God knows I need it at the moment… 😉
