The Best of Winter   自1969年起,George Hardinge每年都選編一冊《Winter's Crimes》作為推理小說年度選集,至1992年的24年間,共出了24本的年度選集,也就是說每年都有一本推理小說精選集出版,而在1986年與1992年這兩年,分別出了精選集的精選集。1986年出的是從1-17集中挑出的40個故事,名為《The Best of Winter's Crimes》,分為一二兩卷;1992年出的有24個故事,名為《Murders for the Fireside: The Best of Winter's Crimes》,從此之後這系列就結束了,原因我不清楚,也不知道有沒有其他的年度選集取而代之就是了。

  我手邊買到的是《The Best of Winter's Crimes》,價錢是很漂亮的£9.99,兩冊的精裝書,說實話並不貴,而且保存良好,還有一個黑色硬盒,真是叫人感動。對這套1969年就開始出版的選集而言,要收集1-24冊的話實在有相當難度,我只希望有朝一日可以買到另一冊精選集就好。
