Set in the year 2203, this book portrays a society, which is based on a gambling
principle. The main protagonist looses his job and decides to swear an oath on the quizmaster. He ends up being bound to an actual person instead of a position, because the quizmaster himself lost his position due to ... well, bad luck ... A nice society study by Philip K. Dick.
