Summary

Summary

It was supposed to be just another Sunday night fantasy role-playing session between friends . . .

But after years of playing, the game had become so real to David, Tyrone, Scott, and Melanie that all their creations now had existences of their own.

And when the four outside players decide to end their game, the characters inside the game world—warriors, scholars, and the few remaining wielders of magic—band together to keep their land from vanishing.

Now they must embark on a desperate quest for their own magic. Magic that can twist the Rules enough to save them all from the evil that the players created to destroy their entire realm.

Experience the start of a Portal Fantasy Saga from the international bestseller Kevin J. Anderson, author of the Dune Prequels, Duke of Caladan, numerous Star Wars novels, and over 160 other books.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Narrator Neil Hellegers expertly guides listeners through this role-playing adventure set both in the real world, where the human characters play a role-playing game, and in a fictional world, where the characters are still self-aware and have agency. While Hellegers deftly creates specific speech patterns and accents for the “real” characters, it is when he tackles the “fictional” characters that his best narration takes place. Some of the characters are not even human; thus, they have unique speaking patterns. Because Hellegers conveys the size, shape, and power of each character with tonal shifts, he manages to immerse listeners in the action, encouraging them to keep listening for ‘just one more chapter’ time and time again.” AudioFile
