Words

Being a lazybones, how possibly could I resist the urge to steal the description from Wikipedia? ;-) Here you go: "As the interstellar cruise ship Traveller on its maiden voyage (with Earthling passengers and a multiplanetary crew) comes under pirate attack, its captain panics and does the impossible, sending his vessel plunging into an alternate dimension. Upon waking on the world of Arr-Kelaan, the survivors discover they have gained the power of gods: they are indestructible, they can hear the thoughts of mortals, create anything with a mere thought and even bring back the dead. Arr-Kelaan itself is something out of a fantasy novel, with mages and dragons."

You will love Ronson, the protagonist of the first series, and you'll miss him once he's gone. The other characters lack his charms.

The artwork looks pretty good, both in black & white and in full color. Oh how I like artists with distinctive style!

Merchandise

Six books to buy. I recommend getting Myths & Legends and Going Home, as soon as Book 2 comes out.
