The Dark Between the Stars is a 1981 collection of previously-published science fiction short stories by American writer Poul Anderson. [1]
Thomas M. Wagner of SFReviews.net wrote that the publisher's marketing of the book as a collection of science fiction horror stories is "totally misleading" and noted "no unifying theme present in these stories remotely related to the horrors of the universe, whatever those might be." Wagner went on to say that the anthology includes some "must-reads" and that "even a middling Poul Anderson story is quite a bit better than what you're likely to get from most anybody else writing these days."
