"It's unlikely you have read anything like this. I didn't know what to expect going in. What I got was a journey of twists, turns, and the most enjoyable characters I've ever met."

"What is Dusties about? I can't tell you, because EVERYTHING is a spoiler. And that's the thrill of it."

They are strangers in a deadly, bizarre world. But as the survivors penetrate the enveloping darkness and tug at the mysteries around them, they begin to discover both a lethal threat and the elusive pattern that could save them—if it doesn't kill them first.

Dusties is the king of epic mysteries—smart, unexpected, filled with twist after twist for both character and reader. If you enjoy the surprises of classics like Ender's Game and the gripping storytelling of Terry Brooks, Brandon Sanderson, and Terry Goodkind, you'll love the Dusties series.

"Amazing! The sheer amount of gameplay in the box(es) boggles the imagination. I really like the first edition, but the new one is an improvement. This games combines tactical and strategic thinking, along with logistics and resource allocation (to a lesser extent) to create an unique and highly intriguing game that is capable of forging memorable narratives. There are so many different ways to play that it can fit into different time-frames."
