I see he's also offering my and Jamie's books on his Patreon site, and he's publishing an unauthorized French edition of Dragon Warriors despite me and Oliver asking him not to. Nothing much we can do -- although I gather the publishers of Dark Lord are quite likely to sue him for putting an early unauthorized draft of the first DL book on Patreon.Dave Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468228790874490693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141372262111342844.post-3248862715182591762019-01-30T08:25:46.693+00:002019-01-30T08:25:46.693+00:00He went after Paul personally in a recent update a...He went after Paul personally in a recent update and keeps begging for money to save his villanous company.

I was recently reminded of the piece Mikael at Megara wrote after that Kickstarter finished (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/57119387/fabled-lands-the-serpent-kings-domain/posts/2060374 ) and from the things he says there, and the fact that I'm told his company is selling unauthorized translations of Dragon Warriors without a licence, I can safely say we're unlikely to work with him ever again.Dave Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14468228790874490693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141372262111342844.post-15086423425587019552018-12-28T14:49:54.036+00:002018-12-28T14:49:54.036+00:00Erik, Miko -- thanks for your diligence in spottin...Erik, Miko -- thanks for your diligence in spotting that error.

So much is just only hinted at - due to the size limitations of the gamebook - but, as with the Fabled Lands books, this is not a problem, as it only makes room for my imagination to work. I don't know if you have written any other gamebooks in this setting, but other adventures taking place there would be very tempting...<br />I have also stumbled upon a small bug towards the end of the story - perhaps the same one as Erik. I would gladly pass the info to mr. Fox so he could iron it out - along with thanks for the work it took him to convert the book to Twine format...mikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798274750327471161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2141372262111342844.post-61603270133144954932018-12-26T17:07:12.084+00:002018-12-26T17:07:12.084+00:00How fun!

This will keep boredom at bay tomorrow, especially with there being no horse racing on!<br /><br />In truth, I'd prefer a novel, a sequel, Bloodsword 5/reboot, or Crypt of The Lich-Lord's Dragon.
