In his rough and tumble job there are no tailored Italian suits, no bimbos eager to please, and no massive underground fortresses built by evil overlords seeking world domination &#8211; just an endless series of sinister threats to the safety and security of the billions of mundane citizens of the planet. Sure, Dick&#8217;s tough and he knows a few tricks to help him get out of a tight spot, even if his boss accuses him of over-reliance on an abundance of explosives, but he&#8217;s also got a mortgage, a wife upset by his frequent absences on &#8220;business&#8221; trips, and an increasingly alienated teen-age son who spends way too much time playing in gaming worlds on the computer.<a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CRX8KPK/ref=cm_sw_su_dp?tag=thbith04-20"><br />
</a></p>
<p>When a young computer expert back at the Philadelphia headquarters for The Subsidiary, an international espionage agency created in the aftermath of 9/11, discovers that bad guys are involved in a vast conspiracy, Dick is forced to partner with the espionage neophyte to battle evil on multiple fronts, leading to a final confrontation that incorporates real-world conspiracy theories and cutting-edge technology.</p>
<p>In the end, Dick can save his partner, save his marriage, save his son, or save the world, but he can&#8217;t do it all.</p>

<p>Once a year, the greatest tabletop gamers in the world descend upon Indianapolis for Gen Con — the Best Four Days in Gaming — to play games, see friends, and have fun. They play things like Dungeons &amp; Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, Warhammer 40,000, Settlers of Catan, Munchkin, and everything else they can get their hands on. Mostly the competition is friendly.</p>
<p>Sometimes it is not.</p>
<p>When a world-famous game designer turns up murdered at the convention, Liam Parker — the young game designer who stumbles across the body — makes it his quest to figure out who killed the man, and why. In the end, Liam must figure out the rules of this most dangerous game fast — or risk losing his life.<br />

<p>How to Play is the first novel in the Dangerous Games series.</p>
<p>DANGEROUS GAMES: HOW TO PLAY is available from the <a href="http://www.forbeck.com/product/dangerous-games-how-to-play/" target="_blank">author&#8217;s website</a>.</p>

<p>&#8220;I absolutely loved reading this book, and it’s given me an even stronger desire to attend Gen Con. And the one person I can count on being there? Matt Forbeck. He’s filled this book was amazing details that only someone with years of experience attending could provide. The secret routes between rooms, the odd traditions and award ceremonies, and the meet-and-greet locations where newbies can mingle with the pros… it’s all in here. The murder mystery is just a bonus.&#8221;</p>
