Thanks for the comment and yes, I knew the selection of names would be a marketing decision. It just struck me because as I went through my blog-reading this morning I saw the contents first and got excited about new stories by McHugh, Jones, Lanagan, and Sterling -- in that order. So, even knowing that I am very far from a typical bookstore browser, and that I am not in the country where the book is being marketed, to then see that the cover only mentioned one of the authors I was most interested in was a bit of a surprise.

I think that would might be in something of a minority. Lanagan is definitely arguable, given the buzz surrounding her name.
