Statistically Improbable Guesses.

[tablesaw]

Most of the last identify-the-book meme has been identified, but two remain. There's not much I can do to help with the guessing (the books aren't that well known), so here are the answers:

1. Cement dragon, graveyard dirt, phonograph needle, obsidian knife, supernatural horror, Ninth Sonata.

Conjure Wife, by Fritz Leiber

10. Zeli fruit, government pills, flower sickness, sky sickness, unshared reality, hospitality flower, skull ridges, probability field, buried artifact, reality mechanism, flower remembrances, your blossoms, space tunnels.

Probability Moon by Nancy Kress

I did adapt these for my family's Christmas game, and I'll try to post the results of that soon.

Nancy Kress is my stepmother-in-law's best friend -- she'd be tickled that you used one of her books in this capacity. (And I have to admit that I haven't read any of her books, although we own a few.)
