If you're attending Gen Con this week and want to pick up a copy of Darkened Hill & Dale or TERMINUS, I believe that Studio 2 should have some copies in stock! My books may have crossed an ocean to get there, but every copy has been carefully packaged by yours truly. ☺️

About a week ago, @irny.bsky.social’s TERMINUS arrived, so beautifully wrapped I was hesitant to open it. I did start to unwrap it, stopped, and tried to put it back together to photograph it.

A small book wrapped in red tissue paper. Sealed with a black and white sticker of a skull and the words”This Blighted Isle.”

The cover of the TERMINUS book. The cover is an image of a mosaic. The title TERMINUS dominates the middle of the image, tilted about 45°, with the T in the lower left and the S in the upper right. The lettering is black, the background is mostly white, and a multi-colored border frames the title.

In the upper left of the cover has the front of a train in a circle.
