Re: dungeon alphabet
Gamers looking for some really fun ideas to add to the next dungeon crawl are in for a real treat with The Dungeon Alphabet. That fact that so many incredible artists have graced with book with some amazing pieces of work is worth getting your hands on a copy alone.
I might have a vested interest in the book but there are quite a few works of art I wouldn't mind owning just to hang on my wall near the gaming table.

Re: dungeon alphabet
Right now we have it scheduled for December. Just saw the first pass layout yesterday and it's looking good.

Re: dungeon alphabet
"Most likely." I'm behind on several projects and working to catch up. Dungeon Alphabet interior layout is complete, all art is done, and we're working on the cover design now. In the coming weeks I'll post an updated, "firm" schedule for this one and others - along with some cool previews.

Re: dungeon alphabet
Dungeon Alphabet is at the printer now, and based on their estimates should be in stores mid-January. Look for a special pre-order offer showing up on the web site this week!

Re: dungeon alphabet
Picked this up last weekend. It's a really fun book. One page per letter, and most letters have a neat old-school table to use in your game. Really a neat product!

Re: dungeon alphabet
I Just got my copy today. I can't really improve on the great things said in all the reviews. I'll just say that I like it a ton and at $9.99 it's a great value. Is the woman in the Jewels picture Chauntessa from The Inn of The Slumbering Drake?
