Publisher's blurb: A stream drains out to the ocean over mounds of bones from fallen gladiators. Islands of stone and rubble rise above the skeletons, decorated with pillars of sharpened stakes and flaming skulls. Far above this pirate lord’s arena sits a bone throne, overlooking the growing bloodshed within it. Steel spikes and sharpened stakes line the walls, preventing gladiators from climbing to escape. On the other side of the stadium foams the ocean, filled with shipwrecks from fallen vessels. Two stairwells lead down to the arena, splashed with blood and sealed with barred gates. Stone pews overlook the arena for a bloodthirsty audience, alongside skulls with flaming sockets. Within the arena itself are rickety wooden bridges, connecting the isles. One of them leads out into the ocean.
