As a reader and writer of a fairly niche genre, I'm always looking for speculative poetry anthologies that work on multiple levels. First, as a reader, I want collections that challenge my ideas about the genre as well as introduce me to writers whose work I'm not familiar with. And second, when readers not familiar with speculative poetry ask me for recommendations, I want to be able to suggest collections that are accessible to both science fiction fans who don't normally read poetry as well as poetry readers who aren't familiar with SF tropes. Multiverse succeeds on both levels. I was delighted with the narrowed scope of the book--all the poems are science fiction, whereas most speculative poetry anthologies contain fantasy and horror poems as well--as well as the consistently solid quality of the poems within. I will be seeking out collections from poets whose work I wasn't familiar with before--many of the poets are outside the US, which is refreshing to me as a US-based poet who mostly encounters the work of other US-based poets. I'm also confident that readers not familiar with the genre will find much to enjoy in the book. A highly recommended read. ( )
