Jokers Wild - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (395 words)
Jokers Wild is the third volume in the Wild Cards shared universe series edited by George R. Martin.
Unlike the previous two volumes in the series (Wild Cards and Aces High), this volume uses the format of a mosaic novel, where several writers write individual storylines which were then edited together into one novel length story.
Within the Wild Cards universe, there is also a performance club called Jokers' Wild (which exists in a portable pocket universe), known for the dangerous and cruel nature of its acts, and sometimes for involuntary audience participation.
