If actuaries are reputedly insurance company dullards who do math,
Life Is Pinball's Alroy Shanly might yet be an exception.
A recent graduate of Cyprus Polytechnic Institute, Alroy arrives in
Galveston, Texas, to work for Atlas Global Insurance. But Alroy knows
life is more than math. He moonlights at an internet website, taking phone
calls from people with problems as Roy Who Listens.
Alroy comes to know what he can influence, what he cannot. In hap-
penstance, he discovers his Emma, the two of them bicycling down the
ten-mile Galveston Seawall sidewalk toward a future at novel's end.
