I wound up devouring Welcome to the Future in one day. I don't usually do that with short story anthologies. I tend to dip into them for a story or two and then read something else for a bit before returning. That's mostly because I've never read an anthology in which every single story was phenomenal. While I didn't love all the stories in this one either, almost all of my favorites were front loaded.
If anything, that's what I disliked about this collection. I didn't enjoy the last few stories, and if I hadn't plowed through the book so quickly, that might have tarnished my view of it as a whole. I feel as if the runner-up selections were tacked on at the end only to make the book a little longer. A better way of organizing it would have been to spread them out amongst the gems of the bunch. Putting that aside, Welcome to the Future is well worth buying. ( )
