The various roles of mothers are explored in this imaginative collection of 18 stories, whose subjects include mothers who are computers, animals, or aliens.
An anthology collection with mothers as the main theme.
There really isn't much for me to say about this one. This is the sort of book that stopped me reading themed anthologies back in the day. There were way to many bad to weak stories to make up for the few good ones. I didn't hate this book, mostly I was just very disappointed in it. ( )
I enjoyed this collection of science fiction stories with a maternal theme. My favorites included Jody Lynn Nye's "What's the Magic Word?" and Elizabeth Ann Scarborough's "Don't Go Out in Holy Underwear." ( )
This book is subtitled "The mother of all anthologies" and it is, unsurprisingly, full of stories about mothers (in one way or another). There are overbearing mothers, disappointed mothers, controlling mothers, and at least two AI-run-amok mothers; I wish there were more good/nice/loving mothers, but maybe it's harder to make that dramatic. As with all anthologies, there are a mixture of stories, some good, some less so. My favorites were by Elizabeth Moon and Diane Duane. ( )
