Stories 2: Space by Robert J. Sawyer and Ten Tales of a Dark Tomorrow by Kevin Kuhn. I've been reading Sawyer's stuff for some years now and really like most of his work. Kuhn is new to me, and is one of the titles that was suggested to me on the Kindle. So far they are really good and quite original. I read a fair amount of s-f.

I'm also in the middle of reading Intern by Dr X, who was actually Alan E. Nourse, a medical doctor and writer of s-f. Intern came out in 1965 and is based on a dictated nearly day-by-day account of his intern year several years earlier. He didn't feel free to publish under his own name, and it was years before we learned who it was. What's so fascinating is realizing how relatively primitive medicine was sixty plus years ago, how limited the tools were. Even with that, it's worth reading today. I'd actually read it when it first came out and loved it then. I'm loving it again.
