Best short sci-fi collection I have seen in a couple of years

The first thing I noticed about this book were the absolutely beautiful covers. The stories are sometimes funny, and others will scare the hell out of you. The writing is tight, and each story has an illustration set on the first page of the story. 'Cruel and Unusual,' starts out this book, and just reaches out and grabs you by the throat. They move quickly and each tells a definite story crisply and effectively. My favorite was 'The Inn Between,' which is about a guy who wakes up in Limbo and tries to get out - for years. Very good, very scary. A fantastic work. I would recommend this book to anyone, except young children.
Twilight Zone Stuff
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I bought this book and was pleasantly surprised. The cover is absolutely stunning, and so are the twenty-one sci-fi stories inside. The book is fully illustrated, with high-res images inserted at the beginning of each tale. Some are strictly high-adventure, others are strongly reminiscent of 'Twilight Zone'. 'Dimensions' is a collaboration between Seattle sci-fi author Robert Blevins and British writer Geoff Nelder. They have created a real gem here. My favorite story was 'A Smaller Step,' a story that rewrites the history books about the Apollo missions. I highly recommend this book!
