Dom Sabalos, the young heir to the Sabalos dynasty has a strangely uncertain future.

Probability math, the infallible science of foretelling the future, has predicted his assassination in twenty-four hours. But, by an extraordinary paradox, it has also predicted that he will go on to discover the fabulous, almost mythical world of the Jokers – the gods of the universe.
