reading (Asimov's February)

I finished Asimov's February 2010 night before last. This was an issue of no conclusion. The feature novella "The Ice Line" didn't do it for me really. I generally like alternate history fiction, but this and it's prequel fell flat for me. "The Bold Explorer In The Place Beyond" left me wanting more, which I think was the idea. "The Wind-Blown Man" finished up with the first sprouting of a seed as did "Stone Wall Truth". Overall, I didn't feel the selections were as solid as usual, but it did have a fair variety in setting and style.
