The one Ian Watson book that I've read is "Queenmagic, Kingmagic", an
entertaining story of characters living their lives on worlds whose rules
derive from various games (chess, monopoly, go, chutes and ladders, etc.).
Apparently this is an atypical work, since the descriptions of his other
works sounds much deeper and plays with more challenging ideas.  Any Ian
Watson readers like to comment?  

[C] == Story Collection.
[YA] == The book is for young adults (however you define them).
[O] == Omnibus.  Includes other books.
