Still slowly making my way through the massive 13 volume Theodore Sturgeon collection. I've read 4 volumes so far.
Vol. 03:
"Memorial" is ok at best.
"KILLDOZER!" is an awsome title, but I didn't dig the story.
Vol. 07:
"A Saucer of Loneliness" is good.
Vol. 10:
"The Man Who Lost the Sea" is great.
"The Graveyard Reader" is good. Not SF.
"The Man Who Figured Everything" would have made a good 50s western. Not SF.
"Like Young" is pretty good.
"How to Kill Aunty" is ok. Not SF.
Vol. 12:
"Slow Sculpture" is good but the SF element seems superflous.
"The Girl Who Knew What They Meant" is good. Not SF.
"Crate" is ok. Ending a bit predictable.
I also read The Cauldron by Jean Rabe and Gene DeWeese. Not good. DeWeese wrote a pretty good Star Trek book called Engines of Destiny back in 05 and I was curious about his other stuff.
Started Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay but quickly grew bored with it.
I also read:
Country of the Kind by Damon Knight
That Only a Mother by Judith Merril
Garden of Time by J.G. Ballard
