It appears that the link is broken? It does the appropriate 'change color' when I hover over it, but I can't click to follow or right-click to view.

Link not link?

The [a] tag linketh not, for "hfef" is not the same as "href", and the browser lacks the sagacity to autocorrect to your actual intent.

"before dying at an Intersection con in 1995" Should be "before dying at Intersection, the 1995 World Science Fiction Convention".

Delighted to hear of a Brunner review project.

"As well, Brunner found himself the target of negative reviews and unpleasant behavior from jealous peers of considerable reputation, as well as Charles Platt."

Wow.

The cover for the Greg Egan entry in that series is amusing.

This set a very high bar for the Modern Masters of Science Fiction series; his Alfred Bester study is also first-rate (to invert Ambrose Bierce, my reaction to that book was "the covers of this volume are too close together").

Your recent Brunner posts made me pick up a copy of Total Eclipse.
