I loved these stories

Each story is a complete in itself so it can be read one story at a time or one after another

Brilliant collection

Volume 2B is back on par with volume 1, 2A is good but has a smaller number of stories that entirely sweep you away.

Excellent collection of stories

Better than other Hall of Fames

Each short story was gripping and I had to keep going to the next. I was amazed at how quickly I was emersed in each storyline, some were funny, some Erie, great for those who like fantasy too.

Once started, I couldn’t put it down.
