The State of Play
Summary
Featuring: Ian Bogost, Leigh Alexander, Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian and Katherine Cross, Ian Shanahan, Anna Anthropy, Evan Narcisse, Hussein Ibrahim, Cara Ellison and Brendan Keogh, Dan Golding, David Johnston, William Knoblauch, Merritt Kopas, and Ola Wikander The State of Play is a call to consider the high stakes of video-game culture and how our digital and real lives collide. Here, video games are not hobbies or pure recreation; they are vehicles for art, sex, and race and class politics. The 16 contributors are entrenched - they are the video game creators themselves, media critics, and Internet celebrities. They share one thing: They are all players at heart, handpicked to form a superstar roster by Daniel Goldberg and Linus Larsson, the authors of the best-selling Minecraft: The Unlikely Tale of Markus "Notch" Persson and the Game That Changed Everything. The State of Play is essential listening for anyone interested in what may well be the defining form of cultural expression of our time.

Summary
Dexter Grant, the inspiration for the greatest superhero of all time, lives in reduced circumstances. Now he runs a pet store in Portland, Oregon, and privately calls himself a "Kitten Superhero" because he saves stray animals. He aspires to something greater, but his magic has been restricted by the Fates. The Fates are three women who control the magical universe. Only they've lost their position, and they're on the run. They've turned to an old friend for help, but that friend is dead. Her niece, Vivian Kineally, runs her estate. Vivian, who doesn't even know magic exists. Vivian, who loves comic books. Vivian, who also happens to be psychic. The Fates steer Vivian to Dexter Grant. They want his help. He's not willing to give it. But now that he's met Vivian, he's not willing to give her up either. Dexter Grant must save the Fates - and discover his own fate, all at the same time.
