The Third Force: A Novel of Gadget
Written as a tie-in to the 1993 adventure computer game Gadget, The Third Force tells the story of Elena Hausmann, chief librarian at the Imperial Library and member of the titular Third Force, an underground resistance group attempting to overthrow Lord Paulo Orlovsky, dictator of the Empire. Elena’s discoveries about the mysterious green ore that is used by the Empire as a power source–and possibly as a new weapon–plunge her into an adventure that Library Journal called a “fascinating tale of absolute power corrupting absolutely.”
