Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. There are far too many male protagonists in this collection and too few female protagonists doing the self-rescuing princess thing. I'm on story 8 of 21 and 3 of them have starred men. I'd only classify 3 of the female based stories as featuring strong women. Jim Butcher rocked it with Molly, Andy (female), and Justine doing the strong women thing, as did Carrie Vaughn's "Raisa Stepanova".

Likely finished with this book. I'd like to try S.M. Stirling's story. If I can find it in the MP3 version without too much trouble.

Finished "My Heart is Either Broken” by Megan Abbot. Hard boiled noir. I'd love to read some of her other works. I failed to clearly see how this story fit the anthology's theme, especially after the introduction. Husband is the POV character. Wife's behavior -- possibly unreliable -- failed to read as strong or dangerous. Ending left me unsatisfied.
