Tor is reading Appendix N

"In Advanced Readings in Dungeons & Dragons, Tor.com writers Tim Callahan and Mordicai Knode take a look at Gary Gygax's favorite authors and reread one per week, in an effort to explore the origins of Dungeons & Dragons..."



Starts off with my favorite Appendix N author Robert E. Howard. Interesting commentary. Nothing shockingly new for old grognards.  But, I'm happy just to see "press" about gaming and sci-fantasy.
