Years ago, Earth and Titan fought a war and Earth shed. The planet was irradiated and most of the surviving population is usually sterile. The few survivors play an complex and unending game called Bluff in the behest of the sluglike aliens who rule the planet. On the line in the overall game are two extremely important commodities: land and spouses. Pete Garden just dropped his wife and Berkeley, California, but he includes a plan to earn them back. That’s, if he isn’t derailed by aliens, psychic traitors, or his fresh wife. The Game-Players of Titan can be both satire and adventure, evaluating the ties that bind people jointly as well as the maddening peccadilloes of bureaucracy, if the bureaucrats are human beings or aliens.
