An ambitious and experimental side-project, Beyond the Blight is the first time my game BattleMaster is available in literature form. This book contains eight short-stories and explores the events leading up to the 5th Invasion, revealing stories so far ignored or missed by the nobility as it braces for Daimon attacks.
These stories tell of the Blight and some of the stories at its edge - and inside the blighted lands. For the first time, secrets of darkness are revealed. All stories are entirely in-character, as the experiences of select heroes, villains and just people being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Artwork leading into the chapters completes the strong atmosphere and the in-character concept.
An appendix summing up BattleMaster and the history of Beluaterra makes the book accessible to non-players. It could make a good and quite unique present for friends who are into fantasy fiction, but don’t play BattleMaster - and maybe get them to do so.
