"Gamer's Gate" is a scifi/fantasy novel telling the story of a four person roleplaying game group that discovers that the number one tabletop roleplaying game, Blade & Bolt (B&B), is not actually a game, but instead a highly detailed encyclopedia of a real world. Stephen, an Evangelical Christian college student, leads his gaming group across a portal between Earth and Thrycion (the real world detailed in B&B game books). Derek, his gamer freind, is given the chance to train as a paladin on Thrycion and leave his days of drug dealing behind him. Cynthia and Max must deal with Stephen as he is forced to reconcile the existence of a resurrection spell on Thrycion with his Christian beliefs. The group's return to Earth causes table-top roleplaying gamers across America to become highly sought after guides to the "new world", eagerly recruited by the governments and corporations of Earth.
