This is the TOC in the correct order. However, one more story will be in there before the book goes into production and I'm not sure where it will appear in the anthology. This is being published by St. Martin's Press in spring 2010.

With a lineup of names like that, how on *earth* do you decide which ones to highlight on the cover?

It sounds very cool.

Not my job-the publisher decides that (hopefully with my input)--or they'll put everyone's name on the back cover....
