"A razor-sharp comedy and a smart meditation on the nature of
gaming." --"Boston Globe"
When Russell joins Black Arts games, brainchild of two visionary
designers who were once his closest friends, he reunites with an
eccentric crew of nerds hacking the frontiers of both technology
and entertainment. In part, he's finally given up chasing the
conventional path that has always seemed just out of reach. But
mostly, he needs to know what happened to Simon, his strangest and
most gifted friend, who died under mysterious circumstances soon
after Black Arts' breakout hit.
As the company's revolutionary next-gen game is threatened by a
software glitch, Russell finds himself in a race to save his job,
Black Arts' legacy, and the people he has grown to care about. The
deeper Russell digs, the more dangerous the glitch appears--and
soon, Russell comes to realize there's much more is at stake than
just one software company's bottom line.
