Before bed last night, I finished a rather funny book, called Game Night, by someone calling himself Jonny Nexus. It's a send-up of RPGs, and postulates that several members of a pantheon are playing a game, badly. So many archetypical player behaviors are shown; it's a real laugh for anyone who has ever run a game.

Oh goodness, I bought that book, from the author, in the dealer's room at Eastercon yesterday. I'm so glad it's not a total lemon as books bought like that so often are.

Well, I chuckled fairly often, laughed now and again, and once went into a fit of laughter for several minutes ending in a coughing jag. I call that a winner.

Oh, yeah.

You'll see what I mean almost immediately.

You'll probably have to order it from Amazon, though, unless you see the author at a convention...

The First chapter (online) reads like a DM show. ;)
