Why did the Titans of Ark create Erfworld, a pretty but deadly world in a constant state of war?  And why would such careful craftsmen leave some of their tools behind?

Nobody knows.  But trying to collect these “Arkentools” has left Overlord Stanley the Plaid with a problem; everyone hates his guts.  His neighbors have wiped out his cities and his armies, and now they’re coming for him.

His long-suffering sorceress Wanda has a plan: they can buy a spell to summon the “perfect warlord,” a military genius to lead their last few forces in a final stand at the city of Gobwin Knob. Stanley is desperate enough to buy the spell. He just won’t pay for the support plan.

Enter Parson Gotti, an obsessive young gamer from Columbus, Ohio.  He’s beaten every strategy game he knows, and has started to design his own. Now Parson must stop playing general, and learn to be one. This war is all too real.  The game pieces are actual people.  Their lives are at stake, and so is his own.
