Jim Edwards is a tough man. He's a professional fighter who gave up a promising military career to attend university to study engineering. He thought he could deal with anything that came his way. He was soon going to find out otherwise.
His decision to be part of an obscure science research program hurls into an alternative Earth ruled by a violent and primitive culture that has enslaved an almost extinct human-like people.
After fighting his way to relative safety, he unexpectedly finds love and a new life. But rulers of the Kingdom have come to fear this strange man who claims to come from another world. In their fear they strike at him and murder his woman and her unborn child.
But her death sends him on a savage quest for vengeance that will bring the Kingdom to its knees and change the world forever.
But not everything is as it seems. An advanced culture has detected his presence, and Jim finds himself a principal player in their plans - his life just another roll of the dice in a thousand year old game designed to bring peace to a troubled world.
