There are a lot of words that describe Quillan. Amusement park…fantasy land…fun house…nightmare. This is a territory that revolves around games. All kinds of games.

The pawns in the games are the people of Quillan. The games they play range from simple physical battles with cross-staves to speed-vehicle races over impossible obstacle courses to computer-driven fantasy games where the players are thrown into virtual reality worlds full of peril and excitement. For the poor players, you either win or you die.

This is the chaos that Bobby, along with Loor, finds on Quillan. But Bobby also discovers another aspect of being Lead Traveler that puts him in mortal danger here: he can't kill. It's physically impossible. So Bobby must find another way to win or he won't survive.
