I'm sorry about that. I searched for a list of books she'd edited, but it seemed that neither Google nor I could turn anything up. I've corrected the information above. Thank you very much for telling me. I feel very "oops!" at the moment. Note for next year: definitely start all this much, much earlier. Hi Patrick!

While Beth is one of the best editors in the field and grossly overdue for a Hugo, she doesn't in fact oversee the Tor list, so choosing three random Tor books is liable to yield three books Beth had nothing to do with. A more accurate selection of 2007 titles Beth edited would be MAINSPRING by Jay Lake, THE GOSPEL OF THE KNIFE by Will Shetterly, and JUMPER: GRIFFIN'S STORY by Steven Gould.
