Connie Willis has won more awards than anyone else in SF and fantasy for her work. Her skill is convincingly reinforced in this novella that combines such disparate subjects as chaos theory, sheep-raising and true love. Willis slyly lampoons society's herd mentality as she weaves the tale of a statistician and a scientist whose collaboration produces hilarious results, and may lead them to the stunning breakthrough for which they've been searching.

Fire Watch collects 12 stories from one of science fiction's most decorated authors. Although the stories are thematically unrelated, an undercurrent of mortality weights many of the tales with a powerful sense of humanity's frailties. Two of the best pieces are A Letter from the Clearys and The Sidon in the Mirror, both of which show people reacting to death in characteristically odd (and disappointingly human) ways. Fans of Willis's time-travel books, The Doomsday Book and To Say Nothing of the Dog, will be delighted to find that the title story tells of another haple...

Connie Willis loves Christmas. "I even like the parts most people hate--shopping in crowded malls and reading Christmas newsletters and seeing relatives and standing in baggage check-in lines at the airport. Okay, I lied. Nobody likes standing in baggage check-in lines," she writes. Willis knows it's hard to write good Christmas stories: the subject matter is limited, the writer has to balance between sentiment and skepticism, and too many fall into the Victorian habit of killing off saintly children and poor people. Here she presents eight marvelous Christmas tales, two of which appear for th...
