Reviews
"This exhilarating 23rd collaborative novel in the Wild Cards series features the contributions of assistant editor Snodgrass, David Anthony Durham, Stephen Leigh, John Jos. Miller, Caroline Spector, and Ian Tregillis. This version of Earth is populated by superpowered characters who are diverse in age, race, gender, and ethics. Yet this world is eminently recognizable, even for readers new to Wild Cards. Some people are 'aces' with incomparable powers; others are 'jokers,' considered debilitated or disfigured by their transformations. The sadistic Baba Yaga pitted jokers against one another for her own entertainment, and many cannot forgive her for it. But a mysterious monster of untold power is drawing them all toward chaotic devastation, and Baba Yaga, who's now dying, may hold the secret to containing it. As a vast number of characters attempt to figure out what's going on and going wrong, they make some unexpected discoveries and learn that Earth's only hope must come from a most unlikely place. This is a wild ride of good, blood-pumping fun that packs a surprisingly emotional punch for a book that looks on the surface like just another superhero adventure." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for the Wild Cards series -- : "Delicious...Everything I hoped for in a new Wild Cards book. The character interactions and plot twists have exactly the complexity, surprise, and unsentimental realism I'd expect out of a George R. R. Martin project." -- Austin Grossman, author of Soon I Will be Invincible on Inside Straight "Martin has assembled an impressive array of writers. . . . Progressing through the decades, Wild Cards keeps its momentum to the end." -- Locus "The shared-world series known as Wild Cards has had a long and illustrious history of contributors and achievements." -- SciFi.com "New readers and fans of the long-running series will both love the fast-paced plotting and the ever-expanding history of the Wild Card virus on this alternate Earth, where even the superheroes are human." -- Shelf Awareness on Lowball "Highly recommended." -- SFRevu on Lowball, Perhaps the most original and provocative of the shared worlds books. -Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn "Emotionally powerful. Wild Cards deals up the variety of short fiction without losing the continuity of a novel." - Seattle Times "A delightfully imaginative speculation." - Toronto Star, "This is a wild ride of good, blood-pumping fun that packs a surprisingly emotional punch for a book that looks on the surface like just another superhero adventure." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for the Wild Cards series -- : "Delicious...Everything I hoped for in a new Wild Cards book. The character interactions and plot twists have exactly the complexity, surprise, and unsentimental realism I'd expect out of a George R. R.

Synopsis
Soon to be a show on Hulu! Rights to develop Wild Cards for TV have been acquired by Universal Cable Productions, the team that brought you The Magicians and Mr. Robot , with the co-editor of Wild Cards , Melinda Snodgrass as executive producer. 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, edited by George R. R. Martin and Melinda M. Snodgrass. After the concluding events of Lowball , Officer Francis Black of Fort Freak, vigilante joker Marcus "The Infamous Black Tongue" Morgan, and ace thief Mollie "Tesseract" Steunenberg get stuck in Talas, Kazakhstan. There, the coldblooded Baba Yaga forces jokers into an illegal fighting ring, but her hidden agenda is much darker: her fighters' deaths serve to placate a vicious monster from another dimension. When the last line of defense against this world weakens, all hell breaks loose, literally.... The Committee in New York sends a team of aces to investigate. One by one, each falls victim to evil forces--including the dark impulses within themselves. Only the perseverance of the most unlikely of heroes has a chance of saving the world before utter chaos erupts on Earth. Edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author George R. R.

    I recently came across Pop Up Book Finds and all I can say is what an incredible resource to know as I am a collector of Pop-up books for myself and my grandchildren. The extensive inventory of classic as well as exceptionally unique pop up books makes it a site and seller I will continue to do business with. Products are always as advertised, in great condition, timely shipping, well packaged and wonderful customer service to top it all off. As Arnold said famously... "I'll be back."
