Elminster in Hell
Gods and mortals alike succumb to gambling fever aboard the  Peace of Boona on its yearly baccarat cruise, and would-be  lovers Max and Eleanor, children of two of the game's celebrated  fixtures, are alternately seduced and repulsed by the frenzy.  From up above, Kronos, Apollo and other celestial powerhouses  dabble in earthly matters as the Titan Argus competes with the  mortal D.A. Holon for the strumpet La Petite's love in Mark  Broderick's madcap first book, Baccarat: Nine Lives South of  Boona.Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
