Sporty spec

Sporty spec

Karen A. Romanko, Daniel Ausema

About this book

"There are no sports like these. Sporty spec : games of the fantastic treats sports and games with a speculative twist, in prophesied futures, parallel presents, and imagined pasts. From tennis matches with Death to chess games with Oberon, from free throws with the Fairy Court to surfing with werewolves, every sport imaginable (and a few unimaginable) exist within this speculative city of games. 42 authors, veterans and rookies alike, have contributed flash fiction and poetry that will take you from pong with a dust mote at the beginning of the world to sailboarding through the stars at the universe's edge. Come and be a spectator at our games"--p. [4] of cover.
