July sees Before They Were Giants: First Works from Science Fiction Greats, a collection of the first published stories from 15-well-known authors. Each story will be accompanied by insightful remarks from the author that place the stories into the context of their careers.
As always, covers are mockups, and will change.

Interesting choice not to put R. A. Salvatore's name on the cover of Giants.

No offense intended to Mr. Salvatore, but sometimes not every name can fit on the cover... and I'm sure that Salvatore himself would agree that folks like Ben "I've Been A Science Fiction Badass Since Before Your Parents Were Born" Bova deserve top billing. :)
Again, though, this is just a mock-up cover. I'm extremely excited to see how the final cover turns out.

Indeed and while I know Ben and his writing, I'm wager there are a lot more people between the ages of say... 15-25 who haven't.. but know who wrote the Drizzt novels. :P
