<p><i>The Barsoom Project</i> is the direct sequel to 1981's <i>Dream Park. </i>Eviane's first visit to the-state-of-art amusement arena Dream Park ended in disaster: the special effects had seemed more real than life... until the holograms she was shooting with live ammunition turned out to be solid flesh and blood... and very, very dead.</p><p>Haunted by the past, rebounding from a lengthy spell in a mental hospital, she has returned to Dream Park to exorcise a nightmare that has become reality. But in Dream Park, nothing is what it seems. The Inuit mythology controlling the images is part of a &quot;Fat Ripper Special&quot; designed to implant new behavioral memes. The players are struggling against the game master, one another, and their own demons. And there is a killer who wants to ensure Eviane never regains her memory...noo matter what it costs.</p><p>Blending together hard science fiction with topical RPG-like fantasy games, <i>The Barsoom Project</i> is SF at the cutting edge and a classic creation from two of the genre's most beloved writers.</p>
