Winner of the World Fantasy Award. An anthology of eye-opening, genre-defining science fiction, fantasy, and horror from Tor.com's first ten years.
Since it began in 2008, Tor.com has explored countless new worlds of fiction, delving into possible and impossible futures, alternate and intriguing pasts, and realms of fantasy previously unexplored. Its hundreds of remarkable stories span from science fiction to fantasy to horror, and everything in between. Now Tor.com is making some of those worlds available for the first time in print.
This volume collects some of the best short stories Tor.com has to offer, with Hugo and Nebula Award–winning short stories and novelettes chosen from all ten years of the program.

"Tor.com hasn't just become one of the most essential places to read short stories online, it's also helped rekindle my excitement about short fiction. A fresh new story going up at Tor.com is always an Event." —Charlie Jane Anders, award-winning, bestselling author of Lessons in Magic and Disaster

"A wealth of exceptional sf, fantasy, and horror spanning a decade is brought together to honor both speculative authors and their publisher. Highly recommended for all collections." —Library Journal

      Starred review from August 1, 2018

      Celebrating its tenth anniversary in July, Tor.com presents this retrospective spotlighting 40 works from established and newer writers, curated by Tor.com associate publisher Gallo. Highlights include Mary Robinette Kowal's "The Lady Astronaut of Mars," expanded in the The Calculating Stars and The Fated Sky duology. N.K. Jemisin shows how a metropolis survives in "The City, Born Great." In Alissa Wong's "A Fist of Permutations in Lightning and Wildflowers," sisters Hannah and Melanie warp weather and time, only to discover the end cannot be changed. A young man finds a corpse in the river, then finds his relationship to her changing from stranger to husband when the dead begin to rise in Indrapramit Das's "Breaking Water." VERDICT A wealth of exceptional sf, fantasy, and horror spanning a decade is brought together to honor both speculative authors and their publisher. Highly recommended for all collections.--Kristi Chadwick, Massachusetts Lib. Syst., Northampton
