This is an anthology of short Science Fiction stories. It was put together by the editors as a collection of stories that had had the most impact on them when they were growing up as teenagers and got (and kept) them interested in Science Fiction. I loved almost all of the stories, and have read several through the years. I had been yearning to read some of the old time type of sci fi stories like I used to read when I was younger myself, and this book did not let me down!
Both Drake and Flint are currently sci fi writers and Jim Baen is a publisher of note with Baen Books being a stalwart of sci fi paperback book publishers through the years. I especially enjoyed reading the prefaces and afterwards for each story, as it explained why each title was chosen, and also reminded me of my younger years as a teen starting to get into sci fi.
743 pages, with 29 pretty darn good stories. Highly enjoyable and recommended!
