Jonathan Strahan - The Best Science Fiction & Fantasy of the Year: Volume Thirteen (2019)

 

Kolmekümne loo keskmine hinne on koguni 5,3, mis vast võiks olla niisuguste ülevaateantoloogiate puhul omamoodi tippmargiks või nii. Eks enamus tekste sai loetud juba 2019. aastal, seega mõned paremad lood on meeles, enamus on siiski unustusse vajunud (aga kui postitust vaadata, siis õnneks meenub).

See siis Strahanilt viimane antoloogia, kus koos nii teaduslik fantastika kui fantaasiakirjandus (edasi tuli vaid kaks teadusliku fantastika ülevaadet; nüüd pole midagi); pea samaaegselt lõpetas ilmumise ka Rich Hortoni niisugune kogumik. Kurb värk.
