Game Night: Novel £8
A ten-thousand-year quest is about to be completed. Prophecies will be fulfilled, ancient riddles answered, legendary evils bested, and the nature of the universe revealed. All that’s needed is a band of mighty heroes to do the completing. Unfortunately for the locals, some of the gods have taken a personal interest in the chronicle of these heroes' adventures. Now they are each guiding one of the characters towards the conclusion of their epic journey. That is, when they're not squabbling, backstabbing each other, blowing things up by accident, refusing to play by the rules, and turning the AllFather's creation into a mess of petty arguments, fantasy cliché, gratuitous combat and unnecessary dice-rolls.

Book Of Celestial Directions 3: Yu-Shan: Exalted Sourcebook, Softcover £10
The third of five books dedicated to the supernatural locales of the Exalted setting, this supplement focuses on the Celestial City of Yu-Shan, home of the gods. Built by the Primordials as a refuge in which they might enjoy the Games of Divinity, while their subordinates tended to Creation, Yu-Shan was taken by the gods as the spoils of the Primordial War. Home to a massive bureaucracy rife with corruption, the continent-sized city has been the sole province of the Sidereal Exalts since the Usurpation. Will the Solar Exalted’s return upset the status quo of the Celestial City, or will the Chosen of the Maidens succeed in maintaining their monopoly on the resources of Heaven?
