I don't know, but I hope Ellison's apologized to all the authors he let down. In any case, it's been something like 30 years, so if you're not one of the authors whose work Ellison tied up in that never delivered anthology, it's time to let it go.

Priest's piece is called The Book on the Edge of Forever which is a play on The City on the Edge of Forever which was a Star Trek episode penned by Ellison. The reviews on Amazon are great. About 30% are 1 star and decry the piece as mean and jealous. The pamphlet is kept in print by someone Ellison offended. Lol.
I read the earlier pre-publication version, and it seemed pretty fair to me. It was called The Last Deadloss Visions, and you can read it for free, here:

In actual fact, I don't know why or even if Priest has a beef with Ellison. His piece seems quite cool and objective.
Disclaimer: I'm a fan of both authors work
