So, we wind up with a collection of historical and recent stories hanging together on the concept (I think) what happens after the powers of myths and gods have declined. This means well known science fiction authors such as Robert Silverberg ( “After the Myths Went Home”) and R.A Lafferty (one of my favorite Lafferty stories, “Continued on Next Rock”) are cheek by jowl with Ambrose Pierce, Guy de Maupassant, and Euripides. And, just for mood, poems by Stephen Crane and Walt Whitman are included.
The stories are fine. They all match the “theme” and have a fantastical element about them. But, other than a few already known exceptions (Lafferty springs to mind), none of them blaze themselves on the reader’s memory. And, inclusion of older material hurts the collection. It is not that these items are bad, they are just dated. And there are enough of them for that datedness to hurt the overall impact of the collection.
The redeeming thing about the collection is that I would be surprised if most readers had read even 25% previously. By digging into these older works – works that, in spite of my previous comments, are good enough –most readers will meet material that is different; something they haven’t seen before. So, the collection is nice from that regard. But nothing else makes this stand out as a must have anthology.… (más)
