Title: Huge disappointment for Card fans
Review: I own, literally, every book written by Orson Scott Card and most of the collections he's edited. This one disappointed me. There is not a single word from Card in the introduction, which is usually a source of insight into how/why the collection was assembled. While I enjoyed the title novella, "Black Mist", I felt the book as a whole lacked substance and was not up to the usual Card standard. So, if you've come to the page from a search on "Card," save your money. Bottomline: I will no longer automatically buy collections he edits, but he's still my favorite living author.
