The few instances of success ("Plinking," "Stop the Rocket," "Razorhead the Axeman," and the title story) are quite good, but these are only 4 stories out of 16; and beyond these four, the collection falls away quickly. If you can get hold of any of these stories without spending the $17, that's the way to go.
