Who won last month’s “Lone Wolf Grand Gamebook Giveaway”?
Landen is now the proud owner of these 8 amazing gamebooks!
Congratulations, Landen! (There’s only 1 “Landen” in my entire subscriber list, so you know who you are!)
I’ve sent an email and look forward to hearing back from you within 7 days to claim your loot.
And now for this month’s “Summer Sundry: Tankards & Tomes, Castles & Runes” Giveaway!
Here’s what 1 grand prize winner will be rewarded with:
First up this Handmade Oak 17 oz. Tankard with stainless steel lining and flip-up lid will make you the envy at every BBQ you attend (and earn admiring glances from your covetous Dungeon Master).
Why not use some of these long summer days to learn a few ancient runes and perhaps take your fate into your own hands with this beautiful traditional-Chinese-bound book, “Runes Illustrated”. Enjoy the lush images or use it as a reference for language, history, or symbols - this book is cool as futhark.
You know, all work and no play makes Jackalwere a dull boy. What better way to let loose (and perhaps win a little coin) than with these badass Medieval Castle playing cards by MPC? Made from Eco-herbage paper with original hand-drawn “castle life in the Middle Ages” illustrations, this 2-deck set comes with its own wooden (and engraved) double-deck storage box. This was from a Kickstarter exclusive limited to 2500 decks not available anywhere else and there are only ~ 48 of these wooden double-deck boxes out in the wild!
Get hardy (and buildup your stamina & resilience from being jostled and having mead and what-not spilt all over you at the Ren Faire) by sporting this D&D 24-karat gold-plated amulet of health medallion! Limited to 5,000, world-wide, it may just be the answer to your (character’s) prayers. After all, it’s your “constitution-al” right.
This 8” leaf/feather motif knife with stylish split-wood handle and leather scabbard would fit in at any local Ren Faire (or lost elven kingdom were you to encounter one).
And what better way to keep track of all your new loot and summer adventures than to write them down in this copper-colored embossed Dragon journal!

I just picked up my copy and can’t wait to give it a read!
“The sword’s magical qualities were described in the 11th-century epic poem “The Song of Roland. Charlemagne received Durandal from an angel before he gifted it to his best soldier, according to the legend.
Roland, before his valiant death at the Battle of Roncevaux Pass, tried to break the sword on the rocks to prevent his enemies from taking it — but even he could not destroy the sword.”
