With a computerized game that leads to another world? At the fingertips of a bedraggled old man who claims he can perform magic? Or in the amber gaze of an ice princess in dire need of rescuing? - As the four moons of Tolemac rise upon a harsh land vastly different from his own, hard-headed pragmatist Neil Scott discovers a life worth struggling for, principles worth fighting for. But only one woman can convince him that love is worth dying for, that he must make the leap of faith to become a?Virtual Warrior. An army is camped on Ardra's border. Her people may soon find themselves subjugated to the power of the Tolemac high councilor. When a man appears as if conjured from fire, Ardra is sure he's the warrior who can help her hold her fortress. Although Neil has entered a virtual reality game called "Tolemac Wars," he has no intention of fighting for anything. But when he loses everything (including his clothes) defending Ardra from three rebels, Neil finds he has little choice but to join her entourage. Will Neil remain in the game and follow a very determined Ardra on her quest to save her fortress and her people? Will he fight at her side? And can he ever forgive himself if he fails her? less
