PS Publishing has announced the table of contents for its forthcoming anthology Passing for Human, which is being edited by Michael Bishop & Steven Utley. They expect to publish in early 2008, but are taking pre-orders now. The hardcover anthology will be limited to 500 copies, which are available at £20.00/$40.00.
Though the publisher’s web site claims it is “a new anthology of original short fiction, editied by Michael Bishop and Steven Utley,” a cursory glance at the table of contents will show that some of the authors aren’t producing original fiction any more. The contents include:
