Rules, rings, and royalty govern the medieval world of Alm. Here, beggars and kings alike must live by the rules set by the Gods. You Bugger, a beggar living in the unremarkable town of Garn, is happy with his lot in life. Having left his mysterious past behind him, he wants only to be left to beg in peace.

August 1972. A handprint 100 kilometers across sitting in the Iraqi desert has just been discovered. On the other side of the world, three people unknowingly work to uncover its mysteries. Richard, an atheistic geologist, seeks fame and glory. Gary, a computer translation specialist, seeks to right the wrongs of his past. And Elaine, an investigator at NASA, seeks to uncover the truth. Together, they will discover the secrets of The Godhand...and humanity will never be the same again.

Palaces, politics, and poison await the hapless You Bugger, a beggar who just wants to be left alone so that he can beg in peace. But with a ruthless warrior-king challenging him, an assassin hunting him, and an army deserting him, his days of peace are numbered. He will duel, fight, and scheme in order to get away with his head, but this time the odds truly are not in his favor. There is always a way to win, however, provided that you are prepared to pay the cost of victory. And remember...there are fates worse than death...
