A Gaggle of Licensees! The past week has seen an influx of numerous licensee releases, both near and far. From Keith Herber and Kevin Ross, the guys at Miskatonic River Press, we just received their first book NEW TALES OF THE MISKATONIC VALLEY, a collection of six Lovecraft Country adventures.

Finally, long-time licensee Pagan Publishing has released their long-awaited Call of Cthulhu supplement MYSTERIES OF MESOAMERICA. This is a large campaign delving into the secrets of central America.
