A Fun Read as Always

I really like all of the WoTF books. This one is no exception. The stories and ideas are always new and original. I will buy the next one and the one after that and so on and so forth. Thanks Galaxy Press.

L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 23

I love the Writers of the Future stories! I am not a writer, but I love to read. The stories are almost one for one, great stories. They're short, but always a good read and original work! Since L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future is a contest, the stories are picked by big writers: Anne McCaffrey, Orson Scott Card, Brian Herbert, etc, so I am always guarenteed a GREAT read and I find them to get better and better. Volume 23 has been the best so far. I loved last year's one, too. Keep the Writers of the Future going - it's keeping SF and Fantasy alive! Thanks, S.C.

A great read!

A great read and an interesting collection of short stories that should interest the science fiction reader. I just finished the book and noticed that Jeff Carlson, one of the authors included in the selection, also wrote another book I just finished, Plague Year. So, the book contains stories by authors on their way to notoriety, and I've heard that past winners have gone on to successful careers in the fantasy and science fiction genres. This book will not disappoint. Highly recommended.

Cool ideas

I've got to say that I'm pretty impressed with these guys. I'm an illustrator in the book, and was able to meet all the authors during the conference. The stories they've written are surprisingly original, and the writing quality is very very professional. My favorite is Primetime by Douglas Texter, but they're all remarkably memorable.

Great sf short stories

L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of Future Vol 23 I just completed reading Writers of the Future vol 23 and thought it had the best collection of short stories I have read in some time. I am a fan of Writers of the Future and have been for some time. This book had several story ideas that really impressed me with their freshness. This is one thing I really like about this series. Stories I especially liked were "Primetime" by Douglas Texter and "The Sun God at Dawn, Rising From a Lotus Position" and "The Stone Cipher" by Tony Pi.
