A 2011 Hugo Award nominee, online magazine Lightspeed (www.lightspeedmagazine.com) focuses exclusively on sf, introducing new writers and showcasing familiar voices. This anthology of 48 tales represents the best of the publication’s first year. In Carol Emshwiller’s “No Time Like the Present,” a group of eerily similar families who seem unfamiliar with the basics of modern American culture moves into an upscale neighborhood. A young woman is addicted to diseases in a world where everything is curable in David Tallerman’s “Jenny’s Sick.” There are also stories by George R.R. Martin, Tananarive Due, Bruce Sterling, Stephen Baxter, and Ken Liu. VERDICT This solid introduction to online speculative fiction deserves wide exposure.
