Description

Newcomer Jay Schiffman adds his own spin to the science fiction genre in Game of the Gods, an epic debut of a man willing to tear a corrupt society apart in order to save his family. Despite his prowess as a military commander and judge, Max Cone longs for a life outside of the political spotlight. His wish turns to dust when the world descends into a cataclysmic global war. Every nation wants Cone on its side, but his only priority is rescuing his kidnapped wife and children. In order to find his family, free his friends, and save his people, Cone becomes a lethal killer willing to destroy anyone who stands in his way. He and his ragtag band of warriors-a thirteen-year old girl with special powers, a mathematical genius, a religious zealot blinded by faith, and a former revolutionary turned drug addict-are the only hope of saving the world.
