The periodic table of science fiction


In 2002, science fiction author Michael Swanwick wrote a collection of 118 very short stories titled The Periodic Table of Science Fiction. The stories were commissioned for Eileen Gunn's The Infinite Matrix but were published in the Sci Fiction section of SciFi.com. Each story is named after an element in the periodic table and based around it, ranging from humorous recountings to chilling accounts. The whole collection is available online.
