{"product_id":"a-conventional-boy-a-laundry-files-novel","title":"A Conventional Boy: A Laundry Files Novel","description":"In this new Laundry Files adventure the fate of the world will literally depend on the roll of dice... twenty-sided dice, that is.\n\nIn 1984, Derek Reilly was just another spotty teenage dungeon master growing up in middle England. But then a secret government agency tasked with suppressing magical intrusions received a tip-off – and one midnight raid later, his life was turned upside down by the Satanic D\u0026amp;D Panic.\n\nDecades later Derek, now middle-aged and institutionalized, is a long-term inmate at Camp Sunshine, a center for deprogramming captured Elder God cultists. He’s considered safe enough to edit the camp newsletter, and he even has postal privileges – which he uses to run a play-by-mail game. After 25 years, Derek finally has reason to escape: a nearby D\u0026amp;D convention. While Derek’s D\u0026amp;D games were full of fictional elder gods and world-ending threats, a LARP game at the con is a dread ritual designed to summon a great evil into our world, and it’s up to Derek and his players to stop them.\n\nThe fate of the world may depend on the contents of Derek’s magic dice bag.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1250357845\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1250357845.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Stross, Charles\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
