Imagine a mechanism that would end all wars and bloodshed. A machine
that can create a virtual world where conflicts seem to be fought, but
no one dies. Dr. Leo's Dueling Machine is just that. But when a warrior
from the Kerak Empire finds a way to circumvent the machine, actually
killing his opponents, the results are devastating. His secret knowledge
of the machine could lead to actual, not virtual, war. Dr. Leo and his
assistant must work quickly to discover what Kerak knows. Their lives,
their planet, and the preservation of peace depend on it.
