Frost and Fire is a triumph of style and vision. The collection opens with “Permafrost” which won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards and the final story in the collection is “24 Views of Mt. Fuji, by Hokusai” which won the Hugo Award and was nominated for the Nebula Award. These two stories alone represent an amazing achievement; but this collection is filled with gems such as “Mana from Heaven” and “Night Kings.” a land mark collection by one of the best writers science fiction and fantasy has ever known.
