    Viktor is an arrogant young man who lives all alone on the outskirts of the village. But when he offends a dark god of the forest, he finds himself locked into a nightly game with a deadly visitor. The only way to free himself is to win - but how do you beat the devil at his own game?

    Author

    William R. Spear

    Born and raised in New Jersey, William Spear had a passion for reading from a very early age. From the works of his favorite authors, Stephen King and Michael Crichton, he gained an equal appreciation for both the weird and the scientific. As a result, his stories range from quirky, light-hearted sci-fi to the depths of existential horror.
