✦ Synopsis


The Machine of Death, like the Delphic Oracle, is artfully, sometimes cruelly, vague in its predictions. For example, a girl who drew BOAT as her terminal fate avoided the sea but was killed when a towed cabin cruiser jackknifed in front of her on the freeway. The anthology’s authors, including comics creators, bloggers, gaming writers and fictioneers, enjoy tormenting their protagonists with those fatal ambiguities. But as a group, they also do a remarkable job of exploring the cultural changes such a machine could bring.

"The machine had been invented a few years ago: a machine that could tell, from just a sample of your blood, how you were going to die. It didnt give you the date and it didnt give you specifics. It just spat out a sliver of paper upon which were printed, in careful block letters, the words DROWNED
