Publisher's summary

The great hunt is over. In the end, Timothy managed to keep his invaluable prize. A victory? Perhaps. But glory and adrenaline are very powerful narcotics, and tolerance builds quickly. Once deprived of them, life immediately becomes gray and bleak. What's more, his beautiful lover is beginning to transparently hint that she could find herself a more interesting beau.

What is a talented player to do in this case? The solution suggests itself: rush headlong into the most dangerous adventures, taking risks and walking the blade of a knife. Timothy must do everything in his power to survive in places where making a clean escape is entirely impossible, delighting the viewers with his utterly unique playing style and proving decisively to his lady that his previous success was no mere coincidence.

Will it be hard?

Very!

But old reliable friends are still by his side, and that means victory is possible.

cliffhanger endings suck

I hate cliffhanger endings in genre fiction. However, it was a fun read, minus the last 3 minutes.

More of the same, for good and ill :)

Just as wonderful of the rest of the series and I have swallowed them up so far...

Spoiler!
Ends on a cliffhanger which I bloody well hate, which pulls it down from a perfect score

What a twist!

That ending was absolutely great. I don't understand why people didn't like it!? What a great Clif hanger. 4 more days until the release of the next book. I will absolutely be listening to it. This book is really good if you're waiting for the next book in The Land series. This series will hold your interest. I'm excited to learn about the outcome of the possibility of (Spoiler Word). And if the end was really him in the video. Great book!
