How We Play the Game in Salt Lake and Other Stories Summary

Over the past decade, M. Shayne Bell has published a body of short fiction that ranges from ghostly fantasy to the cold steel of hard science. This collection pulls together seventeen of Bell's best stories, including:

  • Hugo Award Finalist "Mrs. Lincoln's China," in which an old woman tries to save pieces of presidential china during a riot in Washington, D.C.
  • "Lock Down," about Marion Anderson's one concert in Salt Lake City, and what happened and what could have happened.
  • "The Thing about Benny," in which an ABBA devotee searches cubicles in office buildings for plants extinct in the wild -- finding cures to disease in the process.
  • "How We Play the Game in Salt Lake," about a man dying of AIDS who finds magic -- and a way to help people who need help -- even at the end of life.
  • "Balance Due," in which a man is cryogenically preserved -- and brought back 400 years in the future where a lot has changed, but where he has reason to search for his friends and family, and especially for his wife.
There are stories of love here -- and of high adventure, loss, and danger unanticipated.

Through these stories, fight for Bangkok a thousand years in the fut

Through these stories, fight for Bangkok a thousand years in the future when it sits icy on a frozen plain, flee 500 miles down a cable of the elevator to space, and paddle umiaks on a low-gravity whale hunt inside a terraformed arctic-simulation asteroid. Here are futures to make come true; here are also futures that should never come true--but will.
