What are these small, insignificant things-these dice-and why do they disturb us so, with their vertiginous surplus of meaning? This isn't just about percentiles and probabilities. It's about late-night game-ending rolls where everything hinges on that climactic moment when one single die skitters across the table and determines the fate of a hero, a city, kingdom... This is about about gamers, camaraderie, and memories where they meet: our dice. Book jacket.
