The Master

Gameshouse Novella 3

By: Claire North

Narrated by: Peter Kenny

The Gameshouse is an unusual institution.

Many know it as the place where fortunes can be made and lost though games of chess, backgammon -- every game under the sun.

But a select few, who are picked to compete in the higher league, know that some games are played for higher stakes -- those of politics and empires, of economics and kings . . .

And now, the ultimate player is about to step forward.

Critic reviews

"An astonishing re-invention of the time travel narrative. Bold, magical and masterful."—Mike Carey, on The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August
