"Vegatropolis - City of the Beautiful": This reminds me a little of Scott Westerfields Uglies trilogy, though they're quite different. Not the most memorable read.

"Getting to the End": This is such an intriguing idea and really well-written, though quite trippy.

"The Rats": Still love this story, but I'm a little disappointed that Boel Bermann didn't contribute with a new short story.

"Melody of the Yellow Bard": I was unable to finish this one. Stilted English and quite a few mistakes. When the author on page 13 switches from first person POV to third person and then back again, I was done.

"Publisher's reader" - no amount of suspension of disbelief is enough. "Stories from a box" - nothing against filling in a few blanks, but this asks you to write the entire story...

"Lost and found" was another really good one! Very non-explicit and intriguing

A bit up and down this one, but very read worthy as a whole.

"Damien factor" was nothing short of brilliant! Intelligent and wondrously scary. To quote Ministry: The mind is a terrible thing to taste.

Oh, darn, here I've gone on and on about the stories being too short and when a longer one comes along it grabs me not at all... oh well, plenty more to go!

One too-short "waterworld" variant and one a bit silly cyber-steampunk yarn...

Lots of references to the robotic laws - would perhaps be a bit more inventive to not use a concept from the 40's?

Two ok but far too short ones by Ingrid Remvall and Lupina Ojala, one brilliant and humorous take on post-civilization other worlds by Love Kölle. Italo disco's key part of the future!

Who the h... is Erik Odeldahl and how come I don't already know that!? Bloody brilliant story! (Getting to the end). This alone will have been worth it and so many authors wish they could write like that, I'm sure...
