A review by joshmorrey
L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future XXIII by Algis Budrys

4.0

Some very intriguing, interesting, entertaining and question-posing stories populate this anthology, although I did find a few to be lacking. It is my belief, even though I enjoy fantasy writing quite immensely, that the stories in the "Writers of the FUTURE" anthologies should be limited to science fiction writing, not both. Even if the fantasy style tale is simply set on some distant planet, or far in the future, or with a blend of magic and technology, SOMETHING should set it as science fiction and not just fantasy. But this is my own opinion.

Many of the authors are very talented in this anthology and some even give hope to my own meager writing that I might one day find myself within the pages of the hallowed collection.
