This is a colelction of stories, most of which were published in Interzone in 1982 and 1983. Usually, I love these collections, but found it hard to find a story that I liked. To me, only "Oh Happy Day!" by Geoff Ryman, actually felt like a proper story, with a half decent plot and good characters, but there was still something slightly lacking about it. Perversely, I quite liked "Tissue Ablation and Variant Regeneration" by Michael Blumlein, about the total dissection of a patient who is still totally awake. No real plot as such, but mesmerising none the less. The other stories were ok, but somehow none of the concepts really grabbed hold of me, and where I did become intrigued by the set up, found the story a bit of a let down. So I hope this can go out there and find a more appreciative reader.
