This sequel to A Cosmic Christmas features 13 bizarre and fantastic holiday tales from several award-winning authors such as Joe Haldeman, Wen Spencer, the late Frederik Pohl, and Sarah A. Hoyt. Highlights from the collection include Tee Morris's steampunk "In the Spirit of Christmas," in which Scrooge summons Eliza and Wellington from the Ministry of Peculiar Occurrences to rid him of some ghosts; a forgotten Santa Claus making an appearance on the moon in Marianne Plumridge's "Wormhole Magic"; and a very amusing story called "How Thorvald the Bloody-Minded Saved Christmas" by Esther Friesner.
VERDICT A fresh and original holiday collection for sf and fantasy fans.
