This anthology is a delight to read, especially when you don't have a lot of time to sit down and read long stories. Though most of the plots are simple and some cliche, all of the stories are enjoyable, quick reads that will scratch the scifi itch. There are robots, aliens, monsters, time travel, doppelgangers...what more could you want?

This anthology of flash science fiction provides several amuse-bouche for those craving a quick diversion from present reality. Great for a quick read, this anthology provides stories that can be read in five minutes or less. Perfect for those. with a short attention span or too many interruptions in life for a good sit-down. This smorgasbord of science fiction shorts will give you your fix and help you find new authors to follow. Several of the authors include a link to their site in the 1-3 line bio at the end of each tale.

Well, this was fun. As expected. I actually read book two of this collection first since that was the first one posted on Netgalley, so I knew what to expect and wasn’t disappointed. Charming science fiction morsels from what seems like a set collective of authors. Not sure how they are shuffled; each story gets an author’s bio (oddly repetitive), but also gets a cute technicolor retro artwork (adorable).
The stories are flash fiction, perfect for the attention challenged, and showcase just how much fun one can have with such tight word restrictions. The general atmosphere is that of golden age sci-fi. Robots and aliens aplenty and oodles of fun to boot. Recommended. Thanks Netgalley.
