In my more than 40 years working in the science fiction publishing industry, I've seen this notion crop up every 10 years or so: Science fiction has exhausted itself. There are no good new writers coming along anymore. The genre is finished!

Tor editors Hartwell and Nielsen Hayden thoroughly refute such claims with their huge reprint anthology featuring 34 stories published between 2003 and 2011 by writers who came to prominence since the 20th century changed into the 21st. Twenty-First Century Science Fiction will certainly be recognized as one of the best reprint science fiction anthologies of the year, and it belongs in the library of anyone who is interested in the evolution of the genre. --Gardner Dozois
