Enter the 3rd Giveaway Contest, Enter the DRAGON! Rediscovered Realms has been celebrating reaching 1,000 subscribers with giving away monthly fantasy merchandise, and this time we upped the ante by including the complete Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan (and Brandon Sanderson)!
Read on to find out who won last month’s Legendary Dungeons & Dragons Giveaway Contest, and how you can enter to win this month’s contest, “Dragon REBORN”!
Thanks for reading Rediscovered Realms! Subscribe & Consider Pledging to receive amazing weekly posts and Keep the Adventure Going Strong!
In March, we celebrated with Tolkien. Fellow Adventurer, Jeff Bohlin, won and let me know he received his kit. He mentioned he might take a snapshot or two of himself reveling in his Middle Earth loot to share with us. Congrats again, Jeff!
The “Epic Tolkien Giveaway Contest” was featured in the “Other News from The Realms” section of this newsletter:
And what better way in the Year of the Dragon than to feature The Dragon Reborn?
The Wheel of Time series was and is one of my all-time favorite fantasy books series I read as a kid.
My friends and I would devour these massively thick paperback tomes and gossip about their latest happenings in-between classes. It was our version of a soap opera, and it was . . .
. . . soooo excruciating to wait for the next volumes to be published once you got caught up.
And then one day, the author, Robert Jordan, died.
All seemed lost until Brandon Sanderson picked up Robert’s magic quill and completed the series to much acclaim.
But you don’t have to worry about that history or having to wait for the next book to come out, because you now have the opportunity to win the ENTIRE 15 books in pristine (shrink-wrapped) condition.
Yes, I would have loved to affordably find these with the original Darrell K. Sweet covers (some of my favorite fantasy artwork ever), but such was not in the spokes.
The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills, after all.
But hey, I’m getting ahead of myself here. Let’s see who won last months’ Legendary D&D contest.
Drum roll, etc., etc. . . .
CONGRATULATIONS TO
. . .
. . .
Dameon Gaynor!
Congratulations, Dameon. I’ve also emailed you and you have 7 days to claim your winnings. If you don’t, we contracted with a different Goblin assassin than from the last contest (rumor of his extra long appendages made children scared, men jealous, and women curious) to take back your letter of winnings.
And of course, in the event I don’t hear from you, or the new Goblin Assassin gets a bit too overzealous in his duty, I have a runner up already selected.
NEW Goblin Assassin: “Me extra appendages? They aren’t as noticeable as the last assassin’s - but the better to pummel ya with!” AI Generated.

Coming this December (pre-orders now open) is this magnificent Conan and Valeria statue based on the 1982 movie poster!
Our friend and fantasy artist, Luke Eidenschink has just released 2 of his very own pen & ink fantasy comic books, “The Gauntlet”, and “Nanuq”!
Luke’s been working on these for a while. They’re a labor of love for him. Mine just arrived at the doorstep and they look fantastic. I can’t wait to read them this weekend.
You now have your quest, Adventurer. Will you succeed in acquiring the Dragon Reborn in this most auspicious of years? The worst thing you could do would be to do . . . Nothing.

Absolutely love getting these newsletters and the nostalgia that comes with them. As a teacher I often suggest fantasy/sci-fi based titles to my students to keep the storyline alive. I really appreciate being a part of this community and all of your hard work putting this together, Mr. G!
I still think the Dragonlance modules were the best D&D adventures, the novels for them make great reading as well
