The 13 crimes of science fiction Book

Apologies ahead of time, this is a book of 13 stories by different authors, so naturally, I must comment on each. Overall, the stories are so varied, but they stick to mystery/murder/detective theme with futuristic/space elements. Some of them blew me away, some didn't, some sucked. Here we go:

The Detweiler Boy by Tom Reamy- Unforgettable images in this one. The writing was great. Very old school detective like writing. The image of the boy's brother and what he does to the boy will not leave me. Pretty dark overall. 3

The Ipswich Phial by Randall Garrett- Unreadable. I gave it 15 pages and was completely lost. 1

Second Game by Charles V. De Vet and Katherine MacLean- Mind blowing and very intelligent. I wonder if the author was inspired by another story. The writing was high quality and the story was intriguing. The last two pages really came out of nowhere. Bravo. 4.5

The Ceaseless Stone by Avram Davidson- Not fond of this one. I found the writing hard to follow. I wonder if I read it slowly, if I would have gotten something out of it, but I really didn't get anything. 1.5

Coup de Grace by Jack Vance- Really liked this one. It showed the importance of understanding an individual's background and philosophies and adapting to them to be able to effectively communicate with them. Solid writing. 3

The Green Car by William F. Temple- Shocking event immediately followed by story development that feels like it is going down a paranormal path, but takes a turn. Excellent imagery in this one. 3

War Game by Philip K. Dick- So simple. So scary. So wonderfully written. I couldn't put it down and loved the end. 4.5

The Singing Bell by Isaac Asimov- Way too long. Seemed to drone on and on and on and the writing was a little too detailed, so it was a struggle to get to the end, and the end was a let down. 1

ARM by Larry Niven- Very interesting. The writer must have an engineering background. I found the actual murder case and the discovering of the killer to be rather boring though. I wasn't satisfied with it. And I did not understand how the main character had an invisible 3rd arm that can go through skin...weird. 2.4

Mouthpiece by Edward Wellen- See The Singing Bell review. Boring and Dragging. No point to the whole story and then the end was a let down. The only decent part was I liked the writing style a bit more. 1.5

Time Exposures by Wilson Tucker- Cool idea having a camera that can take pictures of a scene and can be adjusted to see the scene in the past up to 14 hours. I love how still primitive it was though with the film coming out and needing the film developed haha. The writing was exciting, but man...what a cliche and crappy ending. 2.5

How-2 by Clifford D. Smark- Wonderful except there being no real ending. Very Black Mirror. Enjoyable story. 3.4

Time in Advance by William Tenn- Fascinating idea of having pre-crime prison sentences. I loved the rational. It actually sounded plausible! Very smart story. No real ending, but I like it. 3.5
