After millenia of bloody interstellar history, violence was outlawed in the Magellanic Cloud, and military gaming for planet-size stakes--the favorite pastime of the Cloud's ruling species--was illegal. But the game that Corbin Gablona proposed was the ultimate gambler's fantasy: he would breach time itself to bring forward the greatest generals of Human and alien history--in this case Alexander the Great and the huge, wolflike Kubar Taug--to place them in combat against each other. They would meet on a strange world where Humans and the alien Gavarians had been cut off from civilization centuries before. Yet, Corbin had no intention of leaving anything to chance--he was determined to use this greatest of games to consolidate his own empire and wipe out his competition. And in order for him to win, Alexander must die. But Corbin had underestimated the strength of his enemies and the true greatness of the living legend--Alexander!
