Neuigkeiten zu CULTS OF GLORANTHA:
"Good newts everyone!
2023 is the year the Cults of Glorantha series of books will be in print and the aim is to release them later this year.
We have 3 of the 10 volumes of the series almost finished [layout done, proofreading in progress].
And we plan to send a batch of them to the printers fairly soon.
So we gave up on our initial plan to have a big box of books because, at the very least, its price would have been quite high.
We're talking about a thousand pages of material covering over a hundred major cults, plus a whole lot of history, all sorts of things beyond that, like talking about the myths at a high level, talking about the monomyth, etc. .
And so, we thought it was going to take us longer than we wanted to get a full series out, to get everything right.
We have therefore decided to make it easier for people who want to invest in time.
Whereas if you're at a convention booth and you see an all-cult box set, no matter how awesome, you're wondering if you want to spend $200 or $300 to have it all.
Whereas in multiple installments you could very well have it all and so we're leaning more towards the philosophy of 128-page books, some even bigger than that.
I noted the main themes:
- we have a book of generalitieswhich includes the monomyth and the basics of a cult: you have the classic outline of a cult, how a cult generally works. You know, 80-90% of cases how it goes. This provides a good base.
- there is a book on the Cults of Darkness : The Cults of Trolls and Other Cults of Darkness,
- there is a book on all the cults of the Sea , on what sea creatures are.
- there is a book on Earth cults ,
- there is a book on the cults of Fire and Heaven ,
- there is a book on the cults of the Storms ,
- There area book on the Spiritual Magick cults of the Shamans, and the cults of the Beasts ,
- there is a book of all Lunars and associated cults,
- there's a book about all Chaos Cults, much like Cults of Terror, but on steroids.
Many of these cults will have extensive background and background parts, myths and other information
- And of course there is a Prosopedia which is an overview of all possible cults for people.
This is a whole lot of information on all the cults to try, especially if you want to develop things or design your own material.
This way you can at least get an overview of what you want to focus your time on.
So I just mentioned 10 books, all copiously illustrated, and staggered over time."
