NESFA Vol 3

Rick Katze, Editor, The Collected Short Works Of Poul Anderson, Volume 3, The Saturn Game (Framingham, MA, 2010).

The Table of Contents lists 30 items. However, these include two Introductions and one Acknowledgments. Therefore, 27 works by Anderson. Of these, 9 are short verses. Therefore, 18 works of prose fiction by Anderson. (No non-fiction articles in this Volume.)

The 18 works comprise:

5 in the Technic History;
2 in the Flying Mountains future history;
1 in the Rustum future history;
1 in the Time Patrol series;
1 in the Gunnar Heim series;
1 in the Operation... series;
7 non-series stories.

Important Addendum: see here.

We have already read the 11 series stories and 5 of the 7 non-series stories.

When I listed "Series With Only Two Installments" (see here), I made at least one omission. "Sam Hall," counted here as one of the 7 non-series stories, describes the Sam Hall revolution which is referred back to in Three Worlds To Conquer. Thus, this short story and this novel can count as another short series.
