1966’s 11^th Annual Edition: The Year’s Best S‑F is the 11^th volume in Judith Merril’s The Year’s Best S‑F series. Unlike previous volumes, 11 does not seem to have had variant titles (or many editions, for that matter). The anthology offers the best stories of the previous year, which in this case stretched from 1962¹ to 1965. Almost all of the stories are from 1965.
