7/2023 – ⭐️⭐️

Dated SF stories (mostly from the ’50s and ’60s) written using now long-outdated science makes for a mostly uninteresting collection of dinosaur adventures. There were two enjoyable entries (Isaac Asimov’s “A Statute for Father” and Robert Silverberg’s “Our Lady of the Sauropods”), the rest are quite forgettable.
