Galactic Games by SCHMIDT, BRYAN THOMAS

The Olympic Games--man vs. man, woman vs. woman, pushing skills, minds, brains and bodies to their limits in the ultimate competition on Earth. But now mankind has reached the stars and new challenges and possibilities arisen in sports. From alien opponents to literal death defying stakes and more, galactic games have given the ultimate competition a whole new framework. From top selling authors like George R.R. Martin, Mercedes Lackey, Todd McCaffrey, David Farland, and Seanan McGuire to legends like Robert Silverberg and Randall Garrett, Gene Wolfe, Mike Resnick, and Jack C. Haldeman, GALACTIC GAMES offers 20 one of a kind stories of sports in the future. From variations on old classics like downhill figure skating or horse racing with alien kladnars, from baseball played with speedboats to basketball on Mars and golf on the moon, GALACTIC GAMES brings you a new level of competition you've never seen before.
