Reception



J. Michael Caparula reviewed 'Under the Wheel' in 'Space Gamer/Fantasy Gamer' No. 82. Caparula commented that "I found Benford to be refreshing in short story form, away from his usual sprawling epics" and that "Ford [...] provides a surprising gem to this set" and "Springer's lively prose effectively explores the myths and realities of the female in a time governed by male principles of war and honor."
