eBook Description: The Tele-Games were broadcast in every citizen's home as a harsh reminder of what happened to those who didn't want UTOPIA! Crime was outlawed. War a thing of the past. Those who didn't fit were fed to the games. All wanted to watch; none wanted to play! Only here could society witness violence, killing, death on a grand scale. Hundreds, thousands, of criminals would be packed into the arena to slaughter one another, with the promise of freedom to the final survivor! Only one could live to tell their story.

Only one could survive the Games! * * * *Realizing that it was probably the last time I would ever see them, I watched the tall, endless buildings rush past the police ground-car. They were glassy structures, colored in rainbow brightness, slipping by one after another. The people walked the night-streets and moved into neoned clubs happily, as on every night of their lives, unaware of the hard fact that they could be snapped away to the Tele-Games, without even a moment to say good-by to their loved ones. I, Charles David Travers, a peace-loving Citizen of the 22nd Century, had been arrested for some unnamed crime, to appear in the Tele-Games of March 8th, 2134. And yet the world around me continued as usual.
