I would have enjoyed this more if I didn't know how much better John Varley could write. But still entertaining and available at my library.

Self-made technology mega-millionaire Howard Christian wants all the best toys, and has few scruples about how he gets them and what he uses them for. One thing he wants is a real, live mammoth. He figures he can grow his own if he can find viable DNA in a frozen animal, so he sends out Arctic explorers to find one. What he doesn't count on is that the frozen mammoth is accompanied by a frozen human... wearing a wristwatch.
