Ace 1981, 1989 A book review by Danny Yee Only half of Time Travelers Strictly Cash consists of stories about Callahan's bar, the rest consists of unrelated stories and essays. The latter were if anything more interesting, so this shouldn't put off the Callahan's fans: the essay on Heinlein in particular made me rethink my feelings about him. The Callahan's stories are pretty much what readers of Callahan's Crosstime Saloon would expect. For those who want something a litle different, Callahan's Lady is about a "brothel" run by Callahan's wife, Lady Sally. 30 April 1992

Callahan's Crosstime Saloon
Spider Robinson
Ace 1987 A book review by Danny Yee Regular readers of the newsgroup alt.callahans will need no introduction to this book. It is a collection of stories set in a place called Callahans Bar. Although obviously science fiction, the stories mostly about people, with the science being completely incidental. Spider Robinson is clearly a believer in human goodness, but he writes well enough that the stories don't degenerate into being "feel-good". This is light entertainment after all, so it's permissible to simplify the moral issues a little. 13 April 1992

Spider Robinson: boosting morale in a society with plenty of time to complain
By Tasha Robinson pider Robinson sold his first science fiction story in 1971 while working as a night watchman. "I had absolutely nothing else to do all night but stare into space or make something up," he explained in a recent phone interview. "So to kill time, I pecked out a little story about where I would rather bea bar where they'd let you smash your glass in the fireplace. When I was done, I looked at the pile of paper and I said, boy, you know, that looks just like a manuscript, like real writers produce. It would fool a civilian, probably. If I was to mail it off to magazines that buy stories, well, then they would send me rejection slips, and then I could impress women! I'd be a tragic figure of a man, I'd be the Failed Artist! How romantic can you get?" Instead of a rejection slip, Analog sent him a $400 check for the story, "The Guy With the Eyes." (Robinson discovered, he said, that $400over a week's pay for himimpressed women even more than a rejection slip.) It was the first installment in what is now known as the Callahan Sagaa series of short stories and linked novels about a bar where magical things happen, from telepathy to time travel to meetings between strangers who heal each other's deepest hurts by honestly listening to each other. Robinson mostly writes playful shaggy-dog stories packed full of horrible puns and sly in-jokes, but the Callahan stories are also deeply humanistic, imbued with an honest joy in life and an indefatigable hope for the future.

Melancholy Elephants
by Spider Robinson
This story is dedicated to Virginia Heinlein She sat zazen, concentrating on not concentrating, until it was time to prepare for the appointment. Sitting seemed Nothing must interfere with this meeting, or with her role in it. Dozens of man-years and God knows how many dollars, she thought, funnelling down to perhaps a half hour of conversation. All the effort, all the hope. Insignificant on the scale of the Great Wheel, of course . . . but when you balance it all on a half hour of talk, it's like balancing a stereo cartridge on a needlepoint: It only takes a gram or so of weight to wear out a piece of diamond. I must be harder than diamond. Rather than clear a window and watch Washington, D.C. roll by beneath her car, she turned on the television. She absorbed and integrated the news, on the chance that there might be some late-breaking item she could turn to her advantage in the conversation to come; none developed. Shortly the car addressed her: "Grounding, ma'am. I.D. eyeball request." When the car landed she cleared and then opened her window, presented her pass and I.D. to a Marine in dress blues, and was cleared at once. At the Marine's direction she re-opaqued the window and surrendered control of her car to the house computer, and when the car parked itself and powered down she got out without haste. A man she knew was waiting to meet her, smiling. "Dorothy, it's good to see you again."

48. Spider Robinson Review
I was at a party several years ago and a biologist said I ought to read somebody called spider robinson. I thought spider. spider?
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/patrickoleary/spiderreview.html
A version of this review appeared in The New York Review of Science Fiction
The Importance Of Being Spider
I'll share with you one of those embarrassing moments that only become embarrassing in retrospect. I was at a party several years ago and a biologist said I ought to read somebody called "Spider Robinson." I thought: Spider. Spider? How can anyone named "Spider" write anything important? I mean, Gustave, Graham, VladimirO.K. (You'll notice I was on a first-name basis with some pretty heavy hitters.) And sure, I genuflect before the artistry of Gene (Wolfe) and Jim (Morrow) and Ursula (K. Le Guin) and Octavia (E. Butler)to name a few still on the batting roster. But "Spider?" In one synapse shutdown of reflexive snobbery I had closed my mind. So with that cringe and confession aside, and armed with my aftknowledge of one of the warmest, cleverest and funniest yarn weavers I've ever had the privilege to read, I will join my persuasive biologist friend and attempt to tag team that most elusive reader, the One Who Knows Better, whose prejudices are so vulnerable they require continual confirmation, whose opinions are so unsullied by experience he never thinks anything that hasn't been thought by a quorum, whose taste is so calcified it only recognizes variations on previous pleasures: in other words, my former self. If I could, I would say something like this to him.

Spider Robinson by Equality72521 It is typical of Butterbur's that not a single person, man or Hobbit, batted an eyelid when Gandalf materialized out of thin air and plopped semi-graciously onto a barstool. Sam Gamgee didn't even drop a note in his rendition of "The Road Goes Ever On". "A pint of your best, Butterbur," he said as a smoke ring shaped itself into the infinity symbol above his head.
Slurping the foam from his beer, he turned to the assembled crowd. The room grew silent; when Gandalf spoke even the dog stopped wagging.
"Well", he said. "It seems that the One Ring has been loosed on the world again."
He took another draught while he waited for the rooba rooba to die down.
"Yes, it's true. Sauron casts his evil eye across the world to once again claim the power that once was his. Long ago, the One Ring was wrested from him, and over the years it has made its way through many hands until it has come to rest in the Shire. Now, it must be delivered to Mount Doom before the Dark Lord can find it and regain the iron hold on its one power that he once held." More rooba rooba.
