Its central idea is: by stealing, adapting and combining Lovecraft\u2019s ideas, you can create scenarios that seem new and horrific.  [&#8230;] The book is 175 pages and 30,000 words long (6&#8243; x 9&#8243;), with original art by Jennifer Rodgers. It is annotated throughout by Kenneth Hite, Gareth Hanrahan and Jason Morningstar. [&#8230;] The first part of the book breaks down Lovecraft\u2019s stories, giving you ideas and storytelling structures to use in scenarios. The second part goes through a selection of Mythos creatures [&#8230;]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s a limited-edition hardback, apparently. $35 in the USA, inc. shipping. Not sure what the shipping is to the UK, but there&#8217;s apparently going to be a PDF download edition. PayPal is accepted. It looks rather nice, even if (like me) you can&#8217;t see the attraction of RPG gaming unless it has a 3D virtual world wrapped around it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jurn.link\/tentaclii\/oldimages\/limt.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"limt\" width=\"323\" height=\"232\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2436\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new book, due out in about a week or so&#8217;s time, that seems like it might be useful for &hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/2011\/08\/02\/stealing-cthulhu-new-book\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2435","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-new-books"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2435","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2435"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2435\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/tentaclii\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
