520    "An ancient society of cartographer wasps create 
       delicately inscribed maps; a bodyjacking parasite is faced
       with imminent extinction; an Al makes a desperate gambit 
       to protect its child from a ravenous dragon; a professor 
       of music struggles with the knowledge that murder is not 
       too high a price for fame; living origami carries a 
       mother's last words to her child; a steam girl conquers 
       the realm of imagination; aliens attack Venus, ignoring an
       incredulous earth; a child is born on Mars.... The science
       fiction and fantasy fields continue to evolve, setting new
       marks with each passing year. For the sixth year in a row,
       master anthologist Jonathan Strahan has collected stories 
       that captivate, entertain, and showcase the very best the 
       genre has to offer. Critically acclaimed, and with a 
       reputation for including award-winning speculative fiction,
       The Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of the Year is the 
       only  major 'best of' anthology to collect both fantasy 
       and science fiction under one cover."--from cover, p. [4]
