Some excellent stories

Considering that this is 3 editions of Galaxy's Edge magazine and it contains a serialized story that continues in the 4th edition and it's the best story in the collection, I suppose it could have been worse. Some of the other short stories were great, dome not. I had no interest in editorial content or some of the other non-fiction articles. Annoyingly, it seems this collection serves as an advertisement for the works contained within. Some of them are available for sale and if the hyperlinks had worked I might have considered buying some....
