Summary

The book collects pieces published in 1973 and 1974 that won or were nominated for the Nebula Awards for novella, novelette and short story for the year 1975 and nonfiction pieces related to the awards, together with an introduction by the editor. The essays by Dickson and Scholes appeared in the American editions only. The non-winning pieces nominated for Best Novella were omitted from all editions.

Reception

Publishers Weekly noted the anthology's appearance with an almost entirely descriptive review, observing that "[i]n 1974 the members of the Science Fiction Writers of America chose for the 10th year the stories they felt deserved the coveted Nebula Award; and the winners (except for the novel) are in this collection." It briefly surveys the Silverberg, Eklund/Benford and Le Guin pieces while listing the remainder (and erroneously categorizing the Dickson piece as a story). [2] A review in Locus strongly recommended the collection, highlighting Silverberg's "Born with the Dead" as "outstanding". [3]

The anthology was also reviewed by Martin Last in The Science Fiction Review Monthly, January 1976 and Richard Delap in Delap's F & SF Review, March 1976. [1]

Awards

The book placed ninth in the 1976 Locus Poll Award for Best Anthology. [1]
