School Library Journal
YA-- A collection of short stories by well-known science-fiction writers, all of which share an antiwar theme. Some are humorous, such as Isaac Asimov's ''Frustration;'' others, such as William Tenn's ''The Liberation of Earth,'' are poignant. Kim Stanley Robinson's ''Lucky Strike'' and James Morrow's ''Known but to God and Wilber Hines'' are about past conflicts, taking real events and twisting them into ''what if'' themes. A valuable addition to sci-fi collections both for the insight these stories bring into the struggle for peace, and for the historical view of the impact of war.-- Susan McFaden, Fairfax County Public Library, VA
