Title: Forgettable
Review: Like one of the other reviewers, I didn't purchase this book for the short stories. None the less, I read them and two words come to mind: terrible and forgettable. Writers beware. Just because you can concoct some hair brained idea, doesn't mean that you should turn it into a SF story.I was interested in what Asimov had to say about SF and SF writing. Unfortunately, a disappointment here. Too much pontificating and in places, just poor writing. There is not much here that someone can glean on to that would make them a better SF writer. Don't buy this book; get it from your local library. I look forward to reading some of Asimov's early work some day; it has to be better than this one.
Is the review positive or negative?
