When Andrew Carnegie's flying locomotive deposits Archimedes the duck (and his telekinetic fish, Finley) in the vast Ohio desert, it is only the beginning of a long and torturous journey involving cannibalism, decapitation and social faux-pas. While Finley tries to create the perfect artificial poker game, the horrors of the backwater city of Zuckerstown come to light... and they are horribly unpleasant horrors indeed!
