Original appearances from 1988 to 1996 - mostly in Asimov's, plus Magazine of F&SF and Analog. About half of these had previously been collected in earlier Resnick collections, but they are probably best read as part of the complete related set.

Out of 10 stories, 8 were nominated for the Hugo award ("Kirinyaga" and "The Manamouki" were Hugo-winners), and 4 of those (including the 2 winners) were Nebula award nominees. "Bwana" (not included in those 8) was a LOCUS award nominee. Not many collections can boast that sort of track record.
