"You guys will love the Treskan Imperium!" said Foxx.

After killing mutant monsters, defeating an evil vizier, and gaining and losing a queen's ransom in days, Group Six is more than ready for a real vacation. Which part of the Treskan Imperium will they find most amusing - the mountain pass haunted by the ghosts of an ancient battle, the skirmishes between the relentless Treskan army and the scrappy insurgents resisting their conquest, the wrath of the tyrannical Imperator Merak, or the to-the-death gladiatorial games of Stadium?

Group Six's visit finds Foxx confused, Orchid in her cups, Serena in mortal combat (clad in a fabulous evening gown), and Tresado in love.

This third volume in the Group Six saga is packed full of swordplay and spellcasting, mixed with a touch of silliness and the revelation of more clues to the ongoing mystery: who is playing a deadly game using the citizens of Lurra as their pawns ... and why? They may not know quite what's going on, but that won't stop Group Six from wading in.
