I really liked this anthology, it has a diverse mix of sci-fi short stories from the last 50 years all written by Australian authors. Settings range from the Tojan War to the distant future, from Melbourne to far away galaxies. You don't have to be Australian to enjoy this book but those of us who are will delight in the subtle references to places we know and love. I would recommend this to sci-fi fans and general readers alike as a number of the works could fit into other sub-genres. A great collection.
