Each casque contained a small key that could be redeemed for one of 12 jewels Preiss kept in a safe deposit box in New York. The key to finding the casques was to match one of 12 paintings to one of 12 poetic verses, solve the resulting riddle, and start digging. Since 1982, only three of the 12 casques have been recovered. The first was located in Grant Park, Chicago, in 1984 by a group of students.

The novel also included elements of speculative fiction.

One of the fingers of the hand incorporates a poison dart gun. His left eye is replaced with a false, removable eye that is used (in this first novel) to house a miniature camera. Other physical alterations include the installation of a steel skull plate to replace bone smashed by the crash, and a radio transmitter built into a rib.

The operation has a price: Austin is committed to working for the OSO as a reluctant agent. The second half of the novel describes Austin being teamed with an already experienced female operative, and his mission to the Middle East as both spy and weapon. Austin, already coming to appreciate his bionic implants, relies heavily on his augmentation during the mission and by the end accepts his role.\" - wikipedia\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"formerly Shakespeare and Company Books, now VIcarious Experience","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40735244583021,"sku":"","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0374\/0649\/files\/20230926_154112.jpg?v=1695769042"},{"product_id":"enders-game-by-orson-scott-card-first-tor-printing-january-1985","title":"Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card.
