Tangent Online has just described my contribution to the Catastrophia anthology as "An out-there story with a completely unexpected ending." I THINK that means they liked it. http://www.tangentonline.com/print--other-reviewsmenu-263/anthologies-reviewsmen u-107/1488-catastrophia-ed-allen-ashley |

Terry, there's some text missing from your review. You know, the bit where you say, "Stuart Young's story is not only the best story in the collection but also the greatest story ever written. Much better than that hack Shakespeare." |

It was because I simply couldn't find the words to express just how...there, see? Seriously, anthology reviews are always difficult, do you inlcdue all stories, do you get a flavour of the book? I tend to go for the latter. The truth is that there were no weak stories in "Catastrophia". Every one is individual and original and enjoyable. So pat yourself on the back and be smug! Cheers Terry |

Received my contributor's copy of Catastrophia today. Especially pleased as I'd forgotten I was getting the limited edition signed, hardcover, slipcase version of the book. |
