And now, in the tenth volume of this amazing collection you will find Henry Kuttner, John D. MacDonald, Ray Bradbury, Murray Leinster, H. Beam Piper, and more.
For general comments on this series, see Isaac Asimov Presents the Great SF Stories 1, 1939.
There are no stories by Asimov himself in this volume, and it is otherwise not a terribly strong anthology in the series. It does have Ray Bradbury’s “Mars is Heaven,” which is definitely an excellent story, but the others are not of the same quality. It isn’t a bad anthology by any means, but there are other, much better anthologies in the series.
