The best science fiction scrutinizes our culture and politics, examines the limits of the human condition, and zooms across galaxies at faster-than-light speeds, moving from the very near future to the far-flung worlds of tomorrow in the space of a single sentence. Neil Clarke has selected the short science fiction (and only science fiction) best representing the previous year's writing, showcasing the talent, variety, and awesome "sensawunda" that the genre has to offer.

The Battle of Serenity Valley was the turning point that led the Independents to their defeat at the hands of the Alliance. Yet the Browncoats had held the valley for weeks against all odds, before being ordered to lay down their arms. Command stated they refused to send in airpower because the ground war was "too hot". But the soldiers who were there insist that was not true.... While picking up a new cargo on Persephone, Captain Malcolm Reynolds is kidnapped by a bunch of embittered veteran Browncoats who suspect him of sabotaging the Independents during the war.

There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

"Temple Trouble" by H. Beam Piper
"Cat and Mouse" by Ralph Williams
"The Soul Master" by R. J. Robbins and Will Smith
"Hunter Patrol" by H. Beam Piper
"Gambler's World" by Keith Laumer
"Temple Trouble" is great, it's one of Piper's stories of the Paratime Police. In this story the organization needs to rescue some employees of a transuniversal mining corporation who got in over their heads in an Iron Age culture.
"Cat and Mouse" is probably the best story of the collection. It's really exciting story about an elderly trapper in Alaska who fights an alien monster.
"The Soul Master" is a gruesome mad scientist story. It's overlong and switches main characters halfway through, but is entertaining.
"Hunter Patrol" is an exciting time travel story, but it gets too clever near the end and doesn't quite stick the landing.
"Gambler's World" is a story of palace intrigue on a future planet. It's not terribly exciting and written in a way that makes it hard to understand what's going on.
Overall this is a great collection.
