Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon (1977) is the neighborhood tavern to all of time and space, where the
regulars are anything but: time travelers, talking dogs, alcoholic vampires, cybernetic aliens–
and a group of people who really, truly care about each other. It’s the rare kind of place where
bad pun are as appreciated as good conversation.
Time Travelers Strictly Cash (1979) is their policy, but then again everybody pays cash at
Callahan’s. Lay your money on the bar, name your poison, step up to the line drawn on the barroom
floor, and after drinking make a toast and throw the glass into the fireplace. It’s an odd
tradition (don’t worry about the cost–Callahan gets the glasses at a bulk discount), but one’s
that’s led to some interesting stories.
Callahan’s Secret (1986) may be something even the regulars would never guess. then again, it may
be as simple as listening to those post-toast stories. After-all, like Callahan says, shared pain
is lessened and shared joy in increased–a simple concept that could, after a few drinks, lead to
saving the world….
This omnibus edition contains the trio of books that introduced the world to Mike Callahan, Jake
Stonebender, Doc Webster, Mickey Finn, Fast Eddie Costigan, Long-Drink McGonnigle, Ralph Won Wau
Wau and the rest of the regulars of Callahan’s Place in the stories that helped Spider Robinson
to win both a John W. Campbell Award and a legion of fans.
