Jemppu’s Reviews > The Year's Best Science Fiction: Sixth Annual Collection > Status Update

Read Lucius Shepard's "The Scalehunter’s Beautiful Daughter".

Read D. Alexander Smith's "Dying in Hull".

Read Kristine Kathryn Rusch's "Skin Deep". Am still wondering was/is there a story of same name in one of the other volumes? Why does it sound so familiar?

A litany of middling ones right now, it feels. Or I'm just not in the mood for anything? Not even Pat Cadigan evoked mild curiosity this time around; read their "It Was the Heat".

Read Stephen Kraus' "Emissary".

Read John Kessel's "Mrs. Shummel Exits a Winner".

Read Michael Swanwick's "The Dragon Line", of Arthurian branch.

Read James Lawson's vision of a future "Sanctuary".

(And, was admittedly left perhaps more intrigued by the brief intro to the 'mysterious' author themself).

Read Kim Stanley Robinson's "Glacier".

Read Brian Stableford's "The Growth of the House of Usher".
