More info to follow in the upcoming weeks.
Update:
Per Allan Grohe on OD&D Discussion, publication has been rescheduled for a later date:
"We slowed down the production process when it became clear that we wouldn't make it to print in time for NTX [North Texas RPG Con]. That'll allow us to complete the book properly, instead of risking its quality by rushing the book to press for the con."
It is particularly awesome that "Confessions of a Dungeon Master" is going to be included. I'm excited to read the intros and annotated bib, too!
ReplyDeleteSuper cool!
ReplyDeleteHopefully including Chis Holmes's illustrations?
ReplyDeleteSold! I'm looking forward to this book.
ReplyDeleteDitto. I love me my Maze of Peril! It'll be cool to have all those other stories which I've not read with it in one place.
ReplyDeleteMichael: yes, we'll have a number of Chris' illustrations :D
