By Anthony "LibrariaNPC" DeMinico, 22 July 2020 I've been a fan of The Dresden Files for a few years now, especially with the two iterations of the RPG of the same name. Even with the two RPG titles that have come out over the last couple years, as well as the handful of short stories/microfictions, fans... Continue Reading →
Toss A Coin To Your Witcher GM
By Anthony "LibrariaNPC" DeMinico, 01 April 2020 With the majorly positive reactions to The Witcher series on Netflix, it was only a matter of time before I and others ventured back to the Continent to see what we’ve missed over the years. Thanks to the generosity of R. Talsorian Games, I was able to jump... Continue Reading →
Exploring The Realm: The Encyclopedias Eorzea
By Anthony "LibrariaNPC" DeMinico, 23 January 2019 Any game with a solid setting is worth its weight in gold, in my opinion. When there’s enough to make the world feel alive, full, and nuanced enough to require study, I can’t help but love it even more. This is the very line of thought that urged... Continue Reading →
Hoisting the Colors: Reviewing Born Under The Black Flag
While I've been grumbling quite a bit about the various problems with 7th Sea Second Edition, especially the metaplot, I have to say that I've always been curious how they would handle the novels. The first novel, Daughter of Fate (which I reviewed here), was thrown to us with little warning beyond the promise of... Continue Reading →
Strange Blood In The Aether

I mean, the last volume ended with magic as we know it being exterminated from the world, and the last vestiges of it trapped in items (many of which were weakened and/or... Continue Reading →
Signing In: Rogue One – The Novel
One of the perks of working in a library: I can get my hands on just about any book I want. One of the downsides of working in a library: it can take months to finally get it. Thus the case with the belated review of Rogue One. While I didn't feel that Rogue One... Continue Reading →
Exploring the World of Dishonored With “The Corroded Man”
After reading The Wyrmwood Deceit, I wanted to see more of what is in the world and, as novels tend to have more in-depth details due to narration, I was hoping "The Corroded Man" would fill that itch. Now that I've finally finished reading the book, here I am to provide a review for you... Continue Reading →
Daughter Of Fate – What Will Be the Fate of the Series?
One of the stretch goals for the 7th Sea 2nd Edition Kickstarter was the promise of a number of novels written by John Wick. By the end of the Kickstarter, we were promised Daughter of Fate, Born Under The Black Flag, and The Gossamer Empire. While I was a bit annoyed that certain goals had... Continue Reading →
The Mighty Thor: Thunder In Her Veins
While I can't afford to keep up with EVERYTHING, I do love it when I can borrow the trade versions of comics from the library. It does mean I'm normally 6+ months behind, but I can at least say that I am getting to know our collection a bit better. This time around, I found... Continue Reading →
