The gift Ian Moore received 30 years ago makes him the most hunted man on earth. Driven by a purpose and a vision known only to him, Ian holds the mysterious power to make the young old and old young again. But Ian's godlike control over age and immortality has one limitation--he cannot reverse his own advancing years, and his miraculous power must be passed on before his death. Pursued by those obsessed with stealing his power for selfish and destructive means, Ian is bribed, threatened with capture, and even risks death as time slips rapidly away. --From publisher's description.

There's trivia, and then there's knowledgeÑdeep, extensive, obsessive knowledgeÑmasquerading as trivia. It's the kind of trivia that, if you know the answer, makes you feel triumphant, and if you don't, gives you an education. The kind of trivia based not on what we shouldn't be expected to know, but on what we shouldÑif we're to consider ourselves true fans. Dennis Purdy, author of the just-published Team-by-Team Encyclopedia of Major League Baseball, has been collecting baseball trivia since before he could shave, and now presents the best of the best: a massive collection of over 1,000 trivia games.

The games cover three centuries of baseball history. Home run calls and the announcers who made them famous. The peculiar geography of a baseball fieldÑ where's the garden? the gateway? the firing line? Inimitable slang: cackler, chucker, clinker, and squibber.
