Vengeance of the Valravn is here!
At last! The Vengeance of the Valravn hardcover is out and up for sale on DriveThruRPG. If you backed the Kickstarter at a level that includes a Print at Cost coupon, those went out via email from DriveThruRPG last night. If you didn’t, you can buy the hardcover now at the aforementioned link.
I’m so proud of this project. I conceived of the story behind Vengeance of the Valravn in 2021. I started work on it last year, but an unexpected gig at Meta that lasted nine months pulled me off of it, so I hired the wonderful Kelly Pawlik to help me complete the adventure. The project grew to include gorgeous map packs from Heroic Maps, a 3D printable prop from Milestone Heroes, and extras like token packs and form fillable character sheets. I’m so happy with it and all the work everyone did to bring it to reality. Even though this is a roleplaying game, I feel like it’s one of the best stories I’ve crafted to date. And like all the best stories, it seemed to come together almost on its own (and certainly grew in the telling.) I do hope you’ll check it out.
And then….what’s next? Well, the lazy wolves have been anything but lazy.
Tales from Stolki’s Hall will be an anthology of adult fantasy fiction from ten authors giving us their spin on Norrøngard, my land from the novel Frostborn and the setting of the roleplaying game (thus far). I’ll have more to say about that project very soon, including unveiling the amazing Table of Contents. The book is expected to be released in ebook and trade hardcover along with a special “deluxe gamer edition” that will be in full color and sized to match the roleplaying game books. So whether you’re a fan of my children’s novels looking for adult fare, a reader of (sometimes) hard-hitting Norse-themed stories, or coming to the fiction from the RPG side, there’s something here for you. I’m hoping to launch that in May, so stay tuned for news!
