From Booklist

Stalwart sf fans will most likely find Dozois' twentieth stout annual anthology as satisfying as any of its predecessors. The authors represented in it range from multiple-award winners Gregory Benford, Nancy Kress, and John Kessel to skilled newcomers Molly Gloss and Chris Beckett. In-betweeners in terms of prize winning and output include Ian MacLeod, Ian McDonald, Bruce Sterling, and Eleanor Arnason, who should write much more. Dozois has again cast his net widely, drawing Geoff Ryman's entry from a chapbook and Walter Jon Williams' from the electronic media. As usual, sf magazines are leading resources, with Asimov's and Fantasy and Science Fiction leading the pack in total contributions and Inter zone coming in third. Selections from original anthologies are fewer this year, though. As long as the short story remains an important form for sf, Dozois' anthologies will be required reading for the genre's fans.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Sci fi stories, without the science?, Jui 28 2004
Par Abdulelah Dandachi (Saudi Arabia) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
In the introduction to this collection, editor Gardner Dozois bemoans the popular perception that sci fi is a genre that is dying. But with weak selections such as these, it's a miracle the genre isnt dead already.
If this is the best sci fi can do, then the genre is in alot of trouble. Its a sad day for science fiction when the best stories of the year, contain pitifully little science. In most of the stories, science is none existent, or has a negligable role in the plots (and this even from some so called 'masters' of hard sci fi). Although there were a (very) few gems in this collection, most of the stories are pointless, aimless, lack any kind of meaningfull conclusion, and leave the reader thinking (to paraphrase Simon Cowell) "Well, so what?".

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not up to some of the earlier offerings., Mars 3 2004
Par R. Floyd (Chapel Hill, NC USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Some years I've finished Year's Best Science Fiction within a week of it being published. This year's edition took me seven months to plod through. That word, "plod," captures the problem I had with the book. Some of the stories in this collection ("A Flock of Birds," "The Potter of Bones," "V.A.O.," and "Turquoise Days") are over far too soon. Others end up dragging on for weeks (real time). There often just wasn't a spark in them that captured my interest. The overall effect, unfortunately, is a bit leaden. It is, as always, a must for anyone looking for a thorough survey of the year's short SF, but overall I found Hartwell and Cramer's _Year's Best SF 8_ to be a much more enjoyable take on the year.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Always a good read, Janv. 22 2004
Par Peter Wayne "nemo_garcia" (Houston, TX) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I consider this THE definitive anthology for science fiction short stories, and I make it a point to get it every year. There are always some stories that don't necessarily blow my socks off, but I can appreciate why they were selected, and value the variety the editor always includes in these volumes. There are some quiet stories, some far-ranging space adventures, a novella or two, and always something for everyone. Before each story, the editor gives a little synopsis of the writer's career, and never fails to mention some other works that you can pursue if you like the author's style. That's how I've found some of my favorite sci-fi authors. Definitely worth getting.
