Perfect for old fans and new readers alike, High Stakes (Wild Cards) delves deeper into the world of aces, jokers, and the hard-boiled men and women of the Fort Freak police precinct in a pulpy, page-turning novel of superheroics and Lovecraftian horror.
Wild Cards is a universe of super powers (Aces) and unfortunates (Jokers) made when an alien virus kills 90% of Earth’s population at the end of WWII, leaving 1% Aces and 9% Jokers. Now in modern day, this universe rivals others like DC and Marvel. Just picked up for television!
