I wonder why?
(It also helped that there were some good authors in it and the cover art was pretty cool.)
But man, Bungie really needs to redesign their logo after that seeing that beauty up there.

... and more. It's a pocket novel anthology, not a magazine-style, so it's quite thick.

That Orson Scott Card piece is good. Haven't read the others. Despite his general douchey attitude, Orson Scott Card is a great author. The Ender novels are good, of course, but even more, I like his short stories. I have his collection of stories, Maps in a Mirror, and its a great read. I've read it cover to cover quite a few times, and still pick it up every now and then and read a random story or two.

Hahaha...with a logo like that I feel like Marty would have to grow back his sweet-ass mullet and pull off some kind of italo disco collaboration with Giorgio Moroder. Maybe Kraftwerk and the BeeGees can join in. The 70s...
