A few (4-5) years back I read a story that dealt with an extremely realalistic game where players controlled nations in various scenarios and someone built up Italy from 1914 into a powerhouse empire. It was something like Neubler's Italy, but I probably have the first word wrong. The story also dealt with a drug-induced suspended animation that allowed the rich and powerful to greatly extend their lifespans. But I can't for the life of me recall the name of the book. Surely someone with a better memory than me can help me out?

The Worthing Saga?

No.

Why "no"? That would have been my first guess.

Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :

That's one of Card's Worthing stories, and indeed is included in The Worthing Saga. It was earlier printed elsewhere, however.
