This enticing story begins when a Japanese man who designed Dec  chips for digital entertainment and home control centers with the latest  computer technology in the beginning of the 21st Century changed things in  the world one day when he decided to change things with his game \"The Three  Kings of Orr.\"  The game was complex, net based and linked to a web ring,  rather than DVD or disc based and what happens next is wild and wooly.  Katana assumed the part of the Wise King and while in the game he activated  his mortal enemy, the Deceiver who was a shrewd and unsavory character who  could change into human and animals at will.  Before he knows it Katana is  dissolved into the game and disappears. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The special IR chip that Kantana designed was installed in a DEC set and  sent to the Granger family in a small country town in England where a young  14 year old boy named Nic who has a copy of \"The Three Kings of Orr\"  receives a special message of help on his monitor screen.  Nic assumes the  persona of the Wise King of Orr and types the words in the message and finds  himself blending into the screen and into the game.  What a blast. This fast  paced story rockets into the fantasy world of Orr and into the reality of  life in England, America and Australia as the good guys and the baddies come  together trying to save the world from the Deceiver. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Lindsey Hall does a bang up job of keeping his readers glued to the screen  finding out what is going to happen next.  A jolly good story.
