If a machine could predict how you would die, would you want to
know? This is the tantalizing premise of This Is How You Die, the
brilliant follow-up anthology to the self-published bestseller,
Machine of Death.
THIS IS HOW YOU DIE
Stories of the Inscrutable, Infallible, Inescapable Machine of
Death
The machines started popping up around the world. The offer was
tempting: with a simple blood test, anyone could know how they
would die. But the machines didn't give dates or specific
circumstances-just a single word or phrase. DROWNED, CANCER, OLD
AGE, CHOKED ON A HANDFUL OF POPCORN. And though the predictions
were always accurate, they were also often frustratingly vague. OLD
AGE, it turned out, could mean either dying of natural causes, or
being shot by an elderly, bedridden man in a botched home invasion.
The machines held onto that old-world sense of irony in death: you
can know how it's going to happen, but you'll still be surprised
when it does.
This addictive anthology--sinister, witty, existential, and
fascinating--collects the best of the thousands of story
submissions the editors received in the wake of the success of the
first volume, and exceeds the first in every way.
