A review by ianbanks
The Avram Davidson Treasury: A Tribute Collection by Grania Davis, Robert Silverberg, Avram Davidson

4.0

It’s depressing reading the tributes to Mr Davidson in this book as many of them are coming from people who have also passed away in the 22 years since this was published. It’s hard to review a volume of short stories because the temptation is to feel guilty if you don’t examine every single one. So I’m just going to point out that Davidson was a highly original writer with a loquacious and wry style that is totally in my wheelhouse. I was, however, occasionally stymied by the jarring differences in theme and content and voice from story to story, which is completely my own problem and not that of the editors and definitely not of Davidson himself.
