Publisher's Synopsis
Hey there, fellow geeks and game enthusiasts! I'm Seb, your friendly neighborhood nerd, and I'm here to spill the dice (pun intended) on "Splendor."
Imagine this: I've just landed in Elk City, Oklahoma, ready to kick off my junioyear at Elk City High. Exciting, right? Well, it would be if it weren't for one tiny problem-Brad Thompson, the school's jock extraordinaire and master of all things bully-related.
But fear not, my friends, because amidst the chaos of high school, I've found my sanctuary: board games. And guess what's front and center? Splendor, the game of gem trading and strategy that makes my geeky heart sing.
Now, onto the main event, or should I say, the other main event? Dylan Lewis, Elk City's very own enigmatic bad boy, with tattoos and a motorcycle that could rival Batman's. Underneath that gruff exterior lies a complicated soul.
Our paths cross in the most unexpected ways, and it's like trying to fit a d20 into a Tetris block. Our connection is undeniable, but Dylan's got a reputation to uphold.
"Splendor" is like the quest I never knew I was on. It's not just about board games; it's about finding strength, friendship, and, maybe, a little something more.
So, gear up, fellow nerds, because this story takes you on a journey through my senior year, where I navigate high school, find my inner hero, and just maybe roll the dice of love.
