The Book of Dreams (Fantasy)	58⁽⁵⁾
Published by Subterranean on January 31, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 40
Not a bad collection for a pastime but no classic. Don't break a leg trying to get it. Full Review Link

The Evolutionary Void (The Void Trilogy, Book 3) (Science Fiction)	72⁽¹⁰⁾
Published by Del Rey on August 24, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
...it concludes satisfactorily but not brilliantly. Full Review Link

The Sky's the Limit (Star Trek: The Next Generation) (Science Fiction)	60⁽¹⁾
Published by Star Trek on October 16, 2007 First Published by Star Trek in 2007

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
This volume shows once again that franchise fiction is not to be despised. Great writers may invent immortal characters of their own but competent scribes can still turn in a good job in a pre-fab world. Full Review Link

Speculative Horizons (Fantasy)	69⁽⁸⁾
Published by Subterranean on September 30, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
I preferred the three middle yarns but this is a nicely mixed bunch and different readers will like different bits. Full Review Link

The Stainless Steel Rat Omnibus (Science Fiction)	80⁽¹⁾
Published by Gollancz on March 06, 2008

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 80
It is a fast-paced comic action story but there is a bit of depth, too. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Full Review Link

The Last Song of Orpheus (Fantasy)	63⁽⁶⁾
Published by Subterranean on September 30, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
[Silverberg] went for first person, stream of consciousness narration re-telling an ancient myth. He did it well but I prefer his Science Fiction. Full Review Link

The Palace at Midnight (The Collected Stories of Robert Silverberg, Book 5) (Science Fiction)	93⁽³⁾
Published by Subterranean on September 30, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 100
These are quiet, serene, cerebral stories by a master of the genre, flawlessly written and well worth a look. Full Review Link

By the Mountain Bound (Fantasy)	74⁽⁸⁾
Published by Tor Books on October 27, 2009

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
Not everything is set out absolutely clearly and the ending of both books leaves you wondering a bit what exactly happened. Full Review Link

The Orphaned Worlds (Humanity's Fire, Book 2) (Science Fiction)	60⁽¹⁾
Published by Orbit on April 22, 2010

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
There is lots of action, well-described and entertaining. There is tons of invention and a nicely simmering sense of impending doom for the good guys. Full Review Link

Misspent Youth (Science Fiction)	50⁽⁴⁾
Published by Del Rey on September 16, 2008 First Published by Tor in 2002

Stephen Hunts SF Crownest	Review Rating: 60
I enjoyed the book because Hamilton writes well and there are a few surprises along the way. Full Review Link
