A Leap of Fate Episode 6: The Games of the Triad
Publisher Description
Plucked right out of his ship while hurtling through space, Ron is thrown into a mining prison under the supervision of an Ultra-heavy-worlder; Draake Tarbold. He is forced to fight men to stay alive, the heavy gravity to perform his duties, and his own impatience with his situation...all while trying to find a way to escape. He manages all three long enough to recruit the necessary help to break out, only to find that it was all a plot to force into the most deadly set of athletic events in the galaxy...the Kreete Triad Games. From there, he must somehow find a way to get his team to pull together and fight their way through one hellacious trial to the next. Meanwhile, Cache sets out on a mission to avenge and free Ron from the lowly cowards who abducted him, only to find out that she too must yield to the wishes of the same mysterious new race. She follows Ron to each new venue, hoping to be of assistance, and manages to help keep them all alive when the Kreete try to eliminate them over and over. As the Games progress and Ron's team grows in fame and adoration, the Kreete grow more and more bold in their attempts to retain their portrayal of omnipotence, but that merely urges members of their own staff to help Ron and his team thwart them. The Games of the Triad will send you on a rollercoaster ride of wins and losses, triumphs and deaths that will have your heart pounding right up to the end...and then you will really be shocked!
