Black Static

In the Case Notes section of Black Static #30 I didn't review two short story collections from Australian publisher Ticonderoga. I should have but we ran out of space, so those two reviews got moved over to Interzone, but as I'm a completist and slightly anal I'm going to reproduce the Table of Contents for each title here anyway.
