Reseñas en medios

“An excellent introduction to the most important roots of modern SF.”—The Washington Post

“It’s like sitting down with a good friend whose informal conversation sparkles, whose wisdom pierces you, whose intelligence makes you smarter just by listening.”—Orson Scott Card
 
“The stories alone are worth the price of admission, examples of the best that science fiction can be. But the whipped cream on top is Silverberg’s essay on the craft of each story.”—Wilmington Morning News
