"The Promise of God" is a flat out fantasy story that confused me with the gender confusion it keeps throwing at the reader as well as the rest of it. And yet this story made it into Dozois's 13th Annual Year's Best Science Fiction collection. This is not science fiction. It is magic and fantasy. It is also a good story. "Just Ask" was a bit of fluff. "Ketamine" is a strange thing about a woman with a cat obsession. "Traffic" I found quickly turned boring, like being stuck in traffic for the rest of your life as the characters were.
"As You Sow" was my favorite of the issue by far. A man raises a flock of flamingoes which only he seems to appreciate. Very clever. The Maureen story is apparently one of many stories about a valley girl turned barbarian. Perhaps it was funny in 1995. Perhaps not. The final story, "The Holo-Man" was a rather humorous inter-planetary virtual reality tale with some twists.
Overall for me this was a rather weak selection of stories. ( )
