I had low expectations for this because I confess I had never heard of Gordon R. Dickson (I have bigger holes in my scifi reading than I realized), but I really enjoyed the majority of the stories in this collection. Some are a little pulpy, but most were surpisingly nuanced and portrayed different alien cultures in fascinating ways. I felt like I missed something in a couple of the stories; I wished there had been just a little more explanation or resolution. But I can appreciate leaving room for the imagination too.
