It’s holiday month in the Nest, with Cat just back from a week of Regency dancing and romancing in Sweden, and Simon currently enjoying the sunshine in Spain. Luckily, the other Pelgranistas are furiously pedalling away to keep the production motors turning, and so this month sees the special snowcub edition of the 13th Age Bestiary 2: Lions & Tigers & Owlbears. Pre-order before June 21st and get the plain text PDF, plus an exclusive snowcub print, and your name in the book’s credits. #Feminism is being printed, and should be shipping to pre-orderers shortly – we’ll be adding a bonus PDF with six new games to pre-orderer’s bookshelves later this month. We’re also releasing the beautiful limited edition of the 13th Age living dungeon campaign, Eyes of the Stone Thief, with a bookplate signed by Gareth.

In other news this month, we’re looking forward to the Origins Game Fair in Columbus, Ohio – come and see us at booth #913 if you’re going!
