The Moon Maze Game

The year is 2085, and humanity has spread throughout the solar system, a stable lunar colony is agitating for independence, and lunar tourism is on the rise...Against this background, professional "Close Protection" specialist Scotty Griffin, fresh off a disastrous assignment, is offered the opportunity of a lifetime: to shepherd the teenaged heir to the Republic of Kikaya on a fabulous vacation. Ali Kikaya will participate in the first live action role playing game conducted on the Moon itself. Having left Luna-and a treasured marriage-years ago due to a near-tragic accident, Scotty leaps at the opportunity.Live action role playing attracts a very special sort of individual: brilliant, unpredictable, resourceful, and addicted to problem solving. By kidnapping a dozen gamers in the middle of the ultimate game, watched by more people than any other sporting event in history, they have thrown down an irresistible gauntlet: to "win" the first game that ever became "real." Pursued by armed and murderous terrorists, forced to solve gaming puzzles to stay a jump ahead, forced to juggle multiple psychological realities as they do ... this is the game for which they've prepared their entire lives, and they are going to play it for all it's worth.|1 - The Beehive2 - Cocoa Angel3 - Skeleton Crew4 - An Offer5 - Vegas Odds6 - Kikaya7 - The Prince8 - Neutral Moresnot9 - Kendra10 - Arrival11 - Shotz12 - Gamers13 - Downtime14 In for Good15 - "Have a Good Game" 16 - The Mooncow17 - First Fen in the Moon18 - Rescue19 - Overnight Sensation20 - The Aquifer21 - Arbitration22 - Interruption23 - Hostages24 - No Resistance25 - "This Door Has Been Mined"26 - Breach? 27 - Outside28 - The Naked Sky29 - Fungus Fun30 - Payback31 - Rumors of War32 - Breach33 - Love Lost34 - The Da Vinci Machines35 - Little Wars36 - The Moon Pool37 - Final Gambit38 - Aftermath
