I was gone at a gaming convention last weekend (Kublacon), and when I returned I found an announcement that the Ars Magica book Realms of Power: Faerie is now in the queue to be published, right after Realms of Power: Magic and Hedge Magic, Revised Edition, all three of which feature Erik Dahl on the author byline. (More information about these books is available at
http://www.atlas-games.com/arm5/index.php.) I don't usually go on about this kind of thing, but many of my friends may remember that I was kind of punchy and grumpy a lot last summer, and my significant involvement with these three books in a row is why. (Not because the books are bad, just because doing that much hobby writing all at once is stressful, though gratifying.) Magic is likely to hit shelves this June, even though the web page says July.
