In a world on the brink of madness...
In the summer of 1914, a young man beyond reproach awakens under police
guard grievously injured and accused of heinous, impossible murder.
And in a strange, distant place...
The youngest member of a penniless acting troupe has been taken prisoner
by the loyal minions of a corrupt, vengeful goddess. For an ancient
prophecy has divided the realm's ruling Deities into warring factions--a
prophecy that mentions the crippled captive child ... and a youth
recovering from inexplicable wounds in a British hospital bed.
The Game weaves through worlds and dimensions as it has since time
immemorial--a deadly contest of skill and manipulations that ruthlessly
creates wizards, destroys human pawns...and trans transforms ordinary
men, women and children into something more.
The great game of gods is afoot.
