I really liked this issue. I think the new editor's picks are much more in tune with my taste in stories. There was only one story I didn't like - "An Obstruction to Delivery" - I just hated the writing style. But the rest were wonderful. "In a Wide Sky, Hidden", an SF tale of the far future. "The Masochist's Assistant", a splendid fantasy of manners and society. "The Bride in Sea-Green Velvet", a tale of the price of Lordship in a world with magic. "There Was a Crooked Man, He Flipped a Crooked House", fun with tesseracts. "A Dog's Story", fantasy about canine justice. "I Am Not I", a strange future where altered people rule the world. "Afiya's Song", an alternate history, and perhaps the poorest for me after An Obstruction to Delivery". And finally, "An Unearned Death" - a splendid fantasy setting and a good story.
Now to finish
