Embark on an epic journey in the realm previously known as the backyard.
Joe got more than he bargained for.
He was just a teenage boy trying to enjoy the highlights of a summer day—sitting inside and playing video games—when his mother discovered his less-than-impressive ambitions for the day and booted him outside to play.
Little did they know she was totally Gandalf-ing him into an epic adventure.
Outside, Joe accidentally gets involved in The Game, an imaginative game of make believe and intense action, of loose rules and epic storytelling, of heroes and villains.
Here in The Game, kids become epic and create legends.
Join Joe as he follows ordinary kids from his neighborhood in an epic, though slightly self-conscious, adventure. It will stir up your nostalgia for imaginative games that are both competitive and formative!

Donivar sees this as the real quest that needs to be undertaken for the people. He, and Roland, set off to uncover and dismantle the cloaked influence of Q.U.E.S.T.L.I.N.E. (Quests Universally Engineered So Townfolk Live In Near Equilibrium)

It feels crazy to think that roughly a year ago I declared the manuscript for The Game ready to move forward into pre-publishing work. The feeling of passing the manuscript off of the work table and, in that sense, away from a sense of semi-fluidity under my hands was sureal. It felt like the whole…
I know that if I keep switching which book I’m talking about working on I’m going to start sounding very uncommitted to this whole authorship thing. But, I do have one more book to mention at this time. It’s the one I’m actually working on writing at this moment. Enter Questline. This book originally came…
