This is the year the Hackers make a run for the Blood Bowl. They finally seem to have the right team in place. If they can survive until the Blood Bowl tournament, they stand a good chance of winning it all. Dunk's younger brother Dirk is traded to the Hackers this season, over Dunk's objections. The two fight off the field, both of them blaming the other for their family's troubles. On the field, though, they make one of the greatest passer-catcher teams of all time. Meanwhile, Schlechter Zauberer gets his hands on the Albion Leagues cup via Gunther the Gobbo. Studying the runes on it, he realizes he can finally use it to fulfill his dream of ultimate power. The heroes spend much of the book hunting down Zauberer in an effort to recover the cup, but he foils them time and again. In the end, Zauberer succeeds in thrusting the Blood Bowl from Altdorf into a demonic realm. To survive, the heroes must play an all-star game against the worst players all of Chaos has to offer. If they win, Emperors' Stadium returns to its own world. If they fail, all of Altdorf is doomed to join them in this hellish realm forever.

Gunnery Sergeant Edward Buck and his team of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODSTs) played a major role in saving Earth from all-out invasion at the end of the Covenant War―acts of bravery and ingenuity that did not go unnoticed by the United Nations Space Command. Now, after many Spartans have been killed in battle and the Master Chief is listed as MIA, the UNSC decides to create a new generation of Spartans to defend humanity from threats both outside―and within. When they come to Buck with an extraordinary proposition, he is forced to make a life-altering decision. With the Covenant War finally over, is it time for him to retire to the sidelines for a life he could only dream about…or is he prepared to step up and become part of the military’s new blood?
