I buy Sci-Fi anthologies to read when "on the road". I buy "Writers of the Future", "The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction" and now "Solaris Rising". "Lightspeed Year One" is my new favorite.
The stories can all be read in about one hour (great for an evening, before bedtime read). They are some of the most entertaining, thought provoking stories I have read in years. The 1500 (ebook) pages contains 48 stories.
I liked this collection so much, I am looking for more anthologies edited by John Joseph Adams. I am looking forward to year two!

I haven't finished this yet but if the first 200 pages is any indication this anthology is as wonderful as John Joseph Adams' other work. I read his collection "Wastelands" on my honeymoon trip and it still occupies pride of place in the Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian section of my bookshelves right next to another of his collections, Brave New Worlds. The only thing better than an great story is the man who can collect those stories in one place.
