Title: Mostly resistible tales
Product review: The collection has an intriguing premise: science fiction-romance crossovers (who knew?), but most of the short stories in the collection are almost painfully bad. A couple of nice exceptions: Jo Beverly's "The Trouble with Heroes," which succeeds in creating a complex and potentially sinister hero; and Lois McMaster Bujold's "Winterfair Gifts," which details a small but satisfying part of the Miles Vorkosigan saga. Vorkosigan fans may have missed this one (I did, for years) because it is not shelved with the Bs at local bookstores.
