A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Twelve thousand years ago, they came. They descended from the sky amid smoke and fire, and created humanity and gave us rules to live by. They needed gold and they built our earliest civilizations to mine it for them. When they had what they needed, they left. But before they left, they told us someday they would come back, and when they did, a game would be played. A game that would determine our future.

This is Endgame.

For ten thousand years the lines have existed in secret. The 12 original lines of humanity. Each had to have a Player prepared at all times. They have trained generation after generation after generation. In weapons, languages, history, tactics, disguise, assassination. Together the Players are everything: strong, kind, ruthless, loyal, smart, stupid, ugly, lustful, mean, fickle, beautiful, calculating, lazy, exuberant, weak. They are good and evil. Like you. Like all.

This is Endgame.

When the game starts, the Players will have to find three keys. The keys are somewhere on Earth. The only rule of their Endgame is that there are no rules. Whoever finds the keys first wins the game. Endgame: The Calling is about the hunt for the first key. And just as it tells the story of the hunt for a hidden key, written into the book is a puzzle. It invites readers to play their own Endgame and to try to solve the puzzle. Whoever does will open a case filled with gold. Alongside the puzzle will be a revolutionary mobile game built by Google's Niantic Labs that will allow you to play a real-world version of Endgame where you can join one of the lines and do battle with people around you.

Will exuberance beat strength? Stupidity top kindness? Laziness thwart beauty? Will the winner be good or evil? There is only one way to find out.

Play.
Survive.
Solve.
People of Earth.
Endgame has begun.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

ENDGAME is a revolutionary, fully integrated, multimedia book and gaming experience that invites its audience to join twelve Players in a worldwide, puzzle based scavenger hunt for three hidden keys and the ultimate prize.

Twelve meteors.
Twelve ancient lines.
Twelve Players.

ENDGAME invites its audience to join twelve Players in a worldwide hunt for three hidden keys.

At stake for the Players: not only their lives but the fate of the world.

At stake for the readers: the chance to participate in a real world interactive puzzle.

The world of ENDGAME, written by James Frey and Nils Johnson Shelton, is populated by twelve ancient bloodlines. In each line, a Player trains for a catastrophic event that has not yet happened until the Calling. Now the Players must set off on a journey in search of three ancient keys that will save not just their line, but the world. Each book in the trilogy will feature an interactive super puzzle comprised of clues and riddles layered into the story. Google Niantic is building a mobile, location based, augmented reality game inextricably tied to the books and mythology. Full Fathom Five will have a major cash prize tied to the puzzle in each book. Twentieth Century Fox has bought the movie rights.
