Deadly Places

Description

Welcome to Sin City.”

Block 16 in old downtown Las Vegas holds the distinction of being the original Sin City. Games of chance, free-flowing alcohol, and lurid back rooms flourished on Block 16 in 1906.

Fast forward, Las Vegas welcomes more than forty million visitors a year. Why? Games of chance, free-flowing alcohol, and lurid back rooms. In this book of short stories celebrating place, what better place to celebrate than Sin City? Whether the story is a futuristic saga of deep space war, or features a dusty little town called Pahrump, Deadly Places is all about what happens in and around Vegas.

This book pays tribute to the ghosts, misfits, and non-conformists of Block 16. Without their determination to make something of this place in the sun, there would be no Strip, no City of Entertainment, and no iconic sign proclaiming… “

Welcome to Las Vegas.”
