In honor of heading off to Comic-Con tomorrow, I’m finally releasing two Shotguns & Sorcery books that were original created for the Shotguns & Sorcery RPG Kickstarter. Backers have had them for a while now, and now the rest of the world can grab them too.
tl;dr: Grab these things now:
- Shotguns & Sorcery: The Art Book
- Shotguns & Sorcery: The Wizard’s Wife
- Shotguns & Sorcery: The 5E Sourcebook
- Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game (1st Printing)
- Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game (POD)
The Art Book showcases the best of the art created for Shotguns & Sorcery, the fantasy noir setting created by New York Times-bestselling author Matt Forbeck (um, me!). This includes the new covers for the six Shotguns & Sorcery novels and stories (which I haven’t updated yet) as well as work from Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game and the Shotguns & Sorcery comic book, all reproduced in glorious color—and sometimes in brutal black-and-white.
Featuring the amazing artwork of Allan Gallo, Brian Koschak, Paul Little, Jeremy Mohler, Lee Oaks, Aaron Palsmeier, Jim Pinto, Andrew Poole, and Shannon Potratz. I went through and added notations to everything, explaining how each piece came to be.
The Wizard’s Wife is the first Shotguns & Sorcery comic. It comes in at 22 glorious full-color pages and tells a previously unseen early tale of Max Gibson, the hero of the Shotguns & Sorcery stories.
Every night, legions of zombies scratch at the outer walls of Dragon City, trying to claw their way into the grim and gritty metropolis ruled over by the Dragon Emperor, the mighty beast that keeps the hordes of hungry dead from storming the place and tearing it to the ground. Inside, ex-adventurer Max Gibson — now “Freelance” — tries to keep his head down and enjoy his early retirement, but something keeps digging up parts of his long-buried past.
Case in point: a woman knocks on Max’s door and asks him to follow her husband. Normally this would be no problem. The man is powerful, but the money is good. Good enough anyhow.
But Max already took on this same job for this same woman last night…
Written by Shotguns & Sorcery creator Matt Forbeck, with illustrations by Shannon Potratz, colors by Paul Little, and letters by Ed Dukeshire. Cover by Jeremy Mohler.
If you’d like to grab a copy of Shotguns & Sorcery: The 5E Sourcebook, which is not quite released to the public yet, I’m still taking order for that through BackerKit. I have a few boxes of the standard and deluxe editions sitting here in my office, and I can sign them for you on request.
I also have some copies of the first printing of Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game left. I sell these through eBay, and I can sign these too. You can also pickup the POD version through DriveThruRPG, but the rising print prices there have driven the price up to $75, while the ones on eBay are still only $60 while they last.
Go get ’em while they’re hot!
